LC3000-Series
High Performance, Low-Cost Analog Line Scan Camera
512, 1024 and 2048 elements, 10 and 20 MHz output rates
Description
In the LC3000-series analog line scan
camera, PerkinElmer has combined
the best features of photodiode array
detection, high-speed charge-coupled
scanning, and analog line scan camera
technology to offer an uncompromising
solution to the increasing demands of
advanced imaging applications.
The LC3000-series is a high
performance, low-cost, analog line scan
camera line. The LC3000-series features
a differential driver analog video out-
put with resolutions of 512, 1024 or
2048 pixels, which can achieve data
rates of up to 20 MHz with exceptional
noise immunity. They are designed for
volume applications where small size
and low cost are required.
In order to allow the user to compen-
sate for variations in illumination
found in "real-world" application
environments, the cameras feature
adjustable gain and offset levels. The
LC3000-series cameras feature a
geometrically precise photodiode CCD
image sensor with 14µm square photo-
elements. State of the art electronic
design enables the LC3000-series to
deliver consistent, reliable performance
while the sturdy metal housing provides
maximum protection in a variety of
harsh environment and factory
floor conditions.
The LC3000-series cameras convert
light imaged during a scene into an
analog video signal. The amplitude of
the video signal is a linear function of
the incident illumination taken from the
scene. Antiblooming structures within
the sensor ensure superior performance
over a wide range of lighting conditions.
User-defined control is possible for
line rate, integration time and
video data rate.
LC3000 cameras may be interfaced
to most frame grabber cards, allowing
for a tested, plug and play solution.
