QHY6060 is a big format scientific CMOS camera with 37.7 Megapixel, 61mm square (89mm diagonal) Gpixel Gsense6060 sensor, 10um pixel size, 14bit ADC, 6K*6K resolution. It has both a back-illuminated version and a front-illuminated version. The FSI version has 72% peak QE and the BSI version has 95% peak QE. QHY6060 has a 2-stage TEC cooler and it is air-cooling / water cooling compatible. QHY6060 has USB3.0 high-speed interface.
The BSI QHY6060 also has a soft X-ray response. In order to use it in a full vacuum environment, QHYCCD offer a speciallly customized full vacuum version. Please contact QHYCCD if you need this version.
Please contact QHYCCD for details.
In order to meet the special needs of scientific research work, the scientific camera QHY6060 in a full vacuum version has been launched. Compared with the standard air-cooled + drying structure, vacuum can achieve the airtight drying effect better. For scientific research activities requiring a special vacuum, such as X-ray observation, a vacuum environment must be provided. Up to now, most refrigeration cameras in the vacuum scheme adopt the semi-vacuum design, that is, the front chip part of the camera is placed in the vacuum device, and the other parts are exposed. In contrast, in the full vacuum version all the machines can be placed in the vacuum space, which is not only conducive to better realize airtight drying, but also makes it more convenient to realize rotation and movement of the equipment, and more conducive to observation and operation. In terms of heat dissipation, the camera in the full vacuum version replaces the standard air-cooled structure with a water-cooled structure, which can reduce the vibration to zero and minimize the external influence while adapting to the vacuum environment.
The camera’s USB signal, power supply cable, and liquid cooling need to use the special vacuum connector on the vacuum container. QHYCCD can work with the user for this part.
