Gemini 8KTDI LT Compact TDI sCMOS Line-Scan Camera, 500 kHz at 8K, CXP-12
Gemini 8KTDI LTDesign Tools
A compact, lightweight 8K TDI camera with a standard CXP interface for production-line inspection.
The Gemini 8KTDI LT brings the back-illuminated TDI sCMOS imaging of the Gemini 8KTDI into a smaller, lighter platform for scalable industrial inspection. It runs at 500 kHz at 8K over a CXP-12 × 4 interface and uses fan or passive cooling in place of combined air and water cooling. Visible and UV sensor versions are offered to suit different inspection tasks.
Key Features
- Three models: G8KTDI LT-FAN-CXP (visible sensor, TEC + fan), G8KTDI LT-HS-CXP (visible sensor, passive cooling) and G8KTDI LT-UV-HS-CXP (UV sensor, passive cooling)
- Visible version: 300–1100 nm with 94.2% peak QE at 460 nm; UV version: 180–1100 nm with 65.8% QE at 266 nm
- Line rates of 500 kHz (8 bit), 410 kHz (10 bit) and 380 kHz (12 bit)
- 86 × 86 × 88 mm, 850 g and 35 W, compared with 120 × 120 × 144.5 mm, 3500 g and 72 W for the Gemini 8KTDI V2
- Standard CXP-12 × 4 interface, compatible with mainstream industrial vision equipment
- Pixel-level PRNU/DSNU correction and precise temperature control for quantitative defect detection
- Up to 256 TDI stages (P1) or 32 stages (P2); anti-blooming ≥ 50×
Typical Applications
- Semiconductor inspection
- Chip packaging inspection
- Flat-panel display (FPD) inspection
- Lithium battery inspection
- Web inspection
- Biological fluorescence imaging and gene sequencing
