Page 12: Features And Functions
3. Features and Functions 3.1. Camera Introduction The FL 26BW camera utilizes a SONY back-illuminated CMOS chip for excellent imaging performance. The camera has a quantum efficiency of 92%, a low readout noise of 0.9 e-, and no glow. The dark current level is as low as 0.0005 e-/p/s, equivalent to that of a depth-cooled CCD, which provides good performance support for long-exposure imaging. - Page 13 5) Data output: Processed image data can be transmitted to computers or other devices for display, analysis, and storage through various interfaces such as USB, Ethernet, etc. Technical Support Email: service@tucsen.com TEL: +86-591-28055080-818 Fax: +86-591-28055080-826...
