Its 4116 × 4100 array of 15 µm pixels spans an 87 mm diagonal, and it combines 1.2 e⁻ read noise with exposures of up to 3600 s. Compared with conventional large-format CCD cameras it is smaller, lighter and uses less power, which makes integration at the telescope simpler.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wq-pdp__lbtek-tips\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVacuum-sealed cooling chamber designed for more than 5 years of vacuum stability, reducing maintenance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCooling to −40 °C (air, 10 °C ambient) or −50 °C (liquid, 10 °C coolant); dark current 0.023 e⁻\/pixel\/s at −40 °C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCustomizable cooling depth: at −70 °C, dark current can be as low as 0.008 e⁻\/pixel\/s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e87 mm diagonal with 15 µm pixels reduces multi-camera stitching and helps avoid under-sampling with long-focal-length optics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e92% peak QE at 450 nm and 1.2 e⁻ read noise (High Dynamic mode); 16-bit output with up to 94.7 dB dynamic range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp to 81.4 ke⁻ full-well capacity (Standard Low Gain mode) for good linearity over a wide signal range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoF and CameraLink interfaces, GPS timing and timestamps; power draw below 100 W, about half that of a comparable large-format CCD camera\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wq-pdp__lbtek-tips\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTypical Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLarge-area sky surveys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDeep-space low-light imaging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrecision photometry and variable-star monitoring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAstronomical spectroscopy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpace debris detection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSolar observation and soft X-ray imaging\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"wq-pdp__lbtek-tips\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eRelated Products\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/aries-16-lt-scmos-camera\"\u003eAries 16 LT\u003c\/a\u003e — BSI sCMOS Camera, 16 µm Pixels, 0.9 e⁻ Read Noise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/aries-6504-lt-scmos-camera\"\u003eAries 6504 LT\u003c\/a\u003e — Compact BSI sCMOS Camera, 0.8 e⁻ Read Noise, 100 fps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/aries-6504-pro-scmos-camera\"\u003eAries 6504 Pro\u003c\/a\u003e — BSI sCMOS Camera, 0.43 e⁻ RMS Read Noise, 297 fps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrowse all: \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/lbtek-light-analysis-cameras-scmos-cameras\"\u003esCMOS Cameras\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/lbtek-light-analysis-cameras\"\u003eCameras\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eModel: Aries 1517\u003c\/strong\u003e · Acquisition software and drivers are supplied with the camera.
