Driver circuit for CCD image sensor (S11155/S11156-2048)

The C11165 is a driver circuit designed for HAMAMATSU CCD image sensor S11155/S11156-2048. The C11165 can be used in spectrometers when combined with the S11155/S11156-2048.

The C11165 holds a CCD driver circuit, analog video signal processing circuit (16-bit A/D converter), timing generator, control circuit and power supply. The C11165 converts analog video signals from a CCD into digital signals and outputs them. The USB connector (USB 2.0) provided as a standard feature easily connects to a PC for the C11165 control and data acquisition. The C11165 also has a BNC connector for external trigger input and pulse output. The C11165 is compact, lightweight and very easy to handle.

Application software (DCam-USB) that comes with the C11165 allows easy operation from a PC running on Windows 2000/XP. A function library (DCamUSB.DDL) included with the application software helps you to develop your own software. This software is available with DLL to help you develop your own software programs under various developmental environments.
