S9979
TDI operation / large active area CCD
S9979 is a FFT-CCD area image sensor specifically designed for low-light-level detection in scientific applications. In particular, this image sensor is ideally suited for extremely low-light-level detection in such fields as spectroscopy and astronomy. By operating this image sensor in MPP mode, the dark current can be exceedingly reduced. Moreover, use of the low-noise readout amplifier enables low-light-level detection and long integration time, thus achieving a wide dynamic range. S9979 has an effective pixel size of 48 × 48 µm and is available in active area of 73.728 (H) × 6.144 (V) mm.
