Cooke pco 2000 benefits

High-resolution CCD imaging

The pco 2000 provides 2048 x 2048 pixel resolution with 14-bit image capture, making it suitable for high-resolution scientific and industrial imaging.

Cooled low-noise performance

Thermo-electrical cooling with a delta versus ambient of -50°C helps reduce noise, with low-noise performance down to 9 e- rms.

Integrated camRAM

Integrated camera memory enables fast image recording at 160 MB/s, helping support high-speed acquisition without relying entirely on the host computer.

Selectable interfaces

Image data can be transferred using customer-selectable standard interfaces including IEEE 1394 FireWire, Camera Link, GigE Vision and USB 2.0.

Flexible exposure times

Available exposure times range from 5 µs to 49 days, with an optional 500 ns exposure mode.

Low-light and PIV applications

The digital CCD camera system is suited to low-light camera and PIV camera applications. Colour and monochrome image sensors are available.
