S7015

S7010/S7011/S7015 series are families of FFT-CCD image sensors specifically designed for low-light-level detection in scientific applications. By using the binning operation, S7010/S7011/S7015 series can be used as a linear image sensor having a long aperture in the direction of the device length. This makes S7010/S7011/S7015 series ideally suited for use in spectrophotometry. The binning operation offers significant improvement in S/N and signal processing speed compared with conventional methods by which signals are digitally added by an external circuit. S7010/S7011/S7015 series also feature low noise and low dark signal (MPP mode operation). This enables low-light-level detection and long integration time, thus achieving a wide dynamic range.

S7010/S7011/S7015 series have an effective pixel size of 24 × 24 µm and are available in image areas ranging from 12.288 (H) × 1.44 (V) mm² (512 × 60 pixels) up to a large image area of 24.576 (H) × 6.048 (V) mm² (1024 × 252 pixels).
