Description
In the LD3500-series digital linescan
camera, PerkinElmer has combined the
best features of photodiode array
detection, high-speed charge-coupled
scanning, and digital line scan camera
technology to offer an uncompromising
solution to the increasing demands of
advanced imaging applications.
The LD3500-series are high perform-
ance, low-cost, digital linescan cameras.
The LD3500 features a CameraLink™ or
Parallel LVDS (RS-644) style video
output with resolutions of 512, 1024 or
2048 pixels, which can achieve data
rates of up to 20 or 40 MHz with excep-
tional noise immunity. The cameras are
designed for volume applications where
small size and low cost are required.
In order to allow the user to compensate
for variations in illumination found in
"real-world" application environments,
the cameras feature adjustable gain
levels. The LD3500-series cameras
feature a geometrically precise photo-
diode CCD image sensor with 14µm
photo-elements. State of the art
electronic design enables the
LD3500-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 LD3500-series linescan cameras
transform light imaged during a
scene into a digital video signal.
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.
The LD3500 cameras may be
interfaced to most frame grabber
cards, allowing for a tested, plug and
play solution. Typical high
performance line scan applications
include lumber processing, non-
contact measurement, document
scanning, dimensional gauging,
biomedical imaging, bar code
scanning and many other industrial
and scientific applications.
