A 43 MP stacked BSI sCMOS camera for high-throughput, low-light imaging systems.

The Libra 3243 Pro uses a stacked back-illuminated sCMOS sensor with 8192 × 5232 pixels at 3.2 µm, covering a 31 mm diagonal. A single 100G CoaXPress-over-Fiber (CoF) link carries full 43 MP frames at 100 fps, with read noise down to 1.9 e⁻ and full-well capacity up to 21 ke⁻ depending on the readout mode. The balance of small pixels and well depth suits slide scanning, sequencing and other high-throughput instruments.

Key Features

  • Stacked BSI sCMOS sensor with peak QE above 80%
  • 100 fps at 43 MP, about 4300 Mpixel/s, compared with 420 Mpixel/s for a typical 4.2 MP sCMOS camera at 100 fps
  • 31 mm diagonal (26.2 × 16.7 mm), larger than the 18.8 mm format of conventional sCMOS cameras and matched to 30 mm optical systems
  • 3.2 µm pixels for high-precision sampling with 40× optics
  • Four readout modes: HDR (16 bit, 50 fps), compressed HDR (16 bit, 100 fps), high-speed low gain and high gain (14 bit, 100 fps)
  • Single 100G CoF interface (QSFP28) with up to 100 Gbps bandwidth for simple integration
  • Air or liquid cooling regulated to 5°C or -5°C; under 1 kg and 90 × 90 × 120 mm

Typical Applications

  • High-speed slide scanning
  • Gene sequencing
  • Spatial omics
  • High-throughput imaging
  • High-speed industrial inspection
