Q1 : What advantages does this camera have for astronomical observation?
The UVISI134BUG camera, with its multiple key features, is an ideal choice for astronomical observation. It uses a back-illuminated CCD sensor with a peak quantum efficiency of 85% at 500nm, allowing it to efficiently capture the faint signals of dim celestial objects. The readout noise is as low as 3 e⁻, and it has a dynamic range of 90.5 dB, ensuring high signal-to-noise images even in very low light. With deep cooling down to -50°C (at an ambient temperature of 20°C), thermal noise is effectively suppressed, and with a maximum exposure time of 600 seconds (10 minutes), it’s perfect for long-exposure imaging of dim objects.
Q2 : -50°C cooling, what practical benefits does it bring for imaging?
This camera comes with TEC cooling, reaching temperatures as low as -50°C (at an ambient temperature of 20°C). Its advantages in real-world use include:
Long-exposure imaging: With dark current at 250 e⁻/s/pixel at 20°C, deep cooling effectively reduces thermal noise. Combined with a maximum exposure time of 600 seconds (10 minutes), it’s great for trying to catch really faint light signals, like in astronomy or spectroscopy.
Consistent image quality: Cooling eliminates pixel drift caused by thermal noise, keeping your long-time sequence shots stable.
Reliable in high temperatures: Operating range is -50 to 60°C, so it can handle extreme environments.
Q3 : Why does this series of cameras use a non-cooled design? What are the advantages?
The SWIRNC series uses a non-cooled design with low power consumption, consuming less than 2.11 W. Compared to cooled cameras, the advantages of the non-cooled design are:
Lightweight: measuring only 33 mm × 33 mm × 38 mm and weighing just 70 g.
Low power: no TEC cooling power needed, making it perfect for battery-powered portable devices.
Plug and play: powered via USB 3.0, no external power required.
Fast startup: no need to wait for cooling to reach the target temperature.
