78105 LineSpec Gated Linear CCD Detector.
Fig. 1 Quantum efficiency of LineSpec Gated Linear CCDs
|
The systems described here are detection systems, only. They do not include a spectrograph. We offer a line of 1/8 and 1/4 m spectrographs.
A LineSpec Gated Linear CCD Detection System includes: |
3000 element linear CCD array- USB Interface
- LineSpec Data Acquisition and Control Software
|
You can operate these detectors in three integration modes: |
Integration Time - Hardware Selectable |
This mode supports external triggering; integration times are selectable from 5 Μs to 30 ms by a built-in rotary switch |
External Gate - Via Signal Generator |
In this mode, the integration cycle is synchronized with the external gate pulse, so the integration starts with the rising edge of the gate pulse and stops with the falling edge of the gate pulse |
Integration Time - Via Software Control |
This mode does not support external triggering; integration times are from 1 ms to 10 s |
LineSpec Software |
The LineSpec software is an instrument control and data acquisition software that runs under Windows 98/W2K/XP. The software supports routine spectroscopic measurements and data acquisition. Data can be exported into most MS applications. We also offer optional LabView Drivers and an OEM Developers Kit. |
