RoHS REACH

A compact sCMOS camera for system builders who need low-noise, high-speed imaging in a small footprint.

The Aries 6504 LT puts a back-illuminated 2048 × 2048 sCMOS sensor with 6.5 µm pixels into a compact housing intended for instrument and OEM integration. It offers 83% peak QE and 0.8 e⁻ read noise and comes in two bandwidth versions: a 5G version on USB 3.2 Gen 1 at up to 42 fps, and a 10G version on USB 3.2 Gen 2 or CoaXPress at up to 100 fps.

Key Features

  • 83% peak QE at 450 nm and 0.8 e⁻ read noise (Dynamic mode) for detecting weak optical signals
  • 5G version: USB 3.2 Gen 1 with up to 42 fps, plug-and-play for laboratory use and standalone instruments
  • 10G version: USB 3.2 Gen 2 or CoaXPress (CXP-12), up to 100 fps at 4.2 MP through either interface
  • Fan-free passive cooling on both versions for vibration-sensitive setups; fan cooling optional on the 10G version to reduce thermal noise at high speed
  • 15 ke⁻ full well and 86 dB dynamic range (Dynamic mode), with 2 × 2 and 4 × 4 binning and ROI
  • Hirose 12-pin trigger I/O with hardware and software triggering and timestamps

Typical Applications

  • Fluorescence imaging
  • Spectroscopy and spectral analysis
  • Laser spot analysis
  • Industrial quality inspection
  • OEM instrument integration
