Low noise cameras for scientific
applications
To capture image and analyse complex scientific image date Fairchild Imaging has a line of low-noise, multiport, cooled scientific cameras based on its own large area focal plane array technology
Fairchild Imaging offers low noise cameras with up to 4kx4k CCD in front- or back- illuminated configurations, with or without large bonded fibre taper The cooled cameras work at a sensor temperature of -60C, which is achieved by an internal active peltier cooling

The CWR 635 LDI laser is a high performance, visible (635nm), single emitter (100um) multi-mode laser chip that can be offered in several packages
The cameras offer dramatic improvement in both sensitivity and speed.
There are three camera series available.
Condor: 6x6cm CCD with various fibre optics and scintillators, cooled.
Harrier: high resolution CCD, uncooled.
Peregrine: high resolution front- and back-illuminated CCDs, cooled.
All cameras offer high-performance electronics to minimise readout noise at high speed, multiport readout to optimise speed and sensitivity and large imagers for high optical throughput.
Applications include: astronomy, electron microscopy, high throughput screening, analysis of micro arrays and microtiter plates, non-destructive testing (NDT), X-ray crystallography and X-ray inspections.
