Libra UV UV-Enhanced Global Shutter CMOS Camera, 200–1000 nm, 10 GigE
Libra UVDesign Tools
A UV-sensitive 8.1 MP global shutter camera for high-speed semiconductor inspection and UV spectral imaging.
The Libra UV is built around the Sony IMX487 sensor, giving a 200–1000 nm response with 48% QE at 365 nm and 56% QE at 500 nm. Full 8.1 MP frames are transferred over 10 GigE at up to 152 fps, and the camera is used in front-end wafer inspection, mask alignment, wafer bonding and back-end packaging defect detection.
Key Features
