pco.edge 26 CLHS

pco.edge 26 CLHS sCMOS Camera

The Excelitas pco.edge 26 CLHS offers high-speed, high resolution streaming by combining the image quality of a 26 MPixel image sensor with unrivaled data transfer options. It features four CLHS Fiber Optic Link (FOL) channels - all aligned in one compact plug - which can be selected from one to four sequentially with the ability to transmit up to 3.93 Gpixel/s. Furthermore, the pco.edge 26 CLHS camera operates at a minimum read noise and dark current without compromising image quality, thus making this CMOS camera a powerful solution for numerous applications in life science and physical science.

The pco.edge 26 CLHS combines the fastest possible data interface with a high resolution, high speed sensor to stream a large amount of image data for immediate evaluation. With a true charge domain global shutter sensor and a pixel size of 2.5 μm, the pco.edge 26 CLHS offers high detail even at medium magnification. Its pixel architecture is designed to offer a very good shutter ratio, also known as parasitic light sensitivity, preventing bright light from influencing image quality during readout.
