Powered by Biozpco.dicam C8 UHS Eight-Channel Intensified Camera
The pco.dicam C8 UHS combines eight ultra-fast 18 mm high-quality image intensifiers in a fully integrated 8-channel sCMOS camera system. With advanced optical coupling via ultra-fast tandem lens to a 16-bit sCMOS sensor, the pco.dicam C8 UHS equally distributes light from a single optical input to each intensifier with 2.5 ns shortest gating. Each channel can detect single photons at full 2.3 MPixel resolution.
With extremely high burst frame repetition rates, the pco.dicam C8 UHS can record sequences of 8 ultra-fast images in 20 ns or 16 images in 620 ns while ensuring maximum image quality. Featuring 80G fiber optic based data interface (CLHS FOL), this camera ensures uncompressed and robust 16-bit data transfer of 1144 full frames per second via optical fiber over virtually any distance.
