The S12601-1007S is a one-stage TE-cooled, back-thinned FFT-CCD area image sensor for low-light detection in spectrophotometry. It has a 24.576 mm × 2.928 mm photosensitive area with 1024 × 122 pixels of 24 × 24 μm size. The 24-pin ceramic DIP package includes an AR-coated sapphire window with hermetic sealing. It supports high-speed readout up to 5 MHz and line binning for improved signal-to-noise ratio. Quantum efficiency is 90% or higher at peak, with a spectral response of 200 to 1100 nm. Dark current is 10 to 100 e-/pixel/s at 0 °C and readout noise is 20 to 40 e- rms. Dynamic range reaches 33,000 with line binning. The TE-cooler supports a maximum current of 3.0 A and maximum voltage of 3.6 V. Operating temperature ranges from -50 to +50 °C.
Back-thinned FFT-CCD
The S12600/S12601 series are measurement type FFT-CCD area image sensors developed for low-light-level detection. By using the binning operation, they can be used as a linear image sensor having a long side aligned along the height direction of the photosensitive area. This makes them suited for use in spectrophotometry detectors. The binning operation offers significant improvement in S/N and signal processing speed compared with conventional methods by which signals are digitally added by an external circuit. The S12600/S12601 series are now capable of high-speed readout due to the reduced resistance in the register wiring and the adoption of a high-speed amplifier.
