Hamamatsu Photonics Europe X-ray image sensors, Line sensors S8658-01

Image sensor with a long, narrow photosensitive area for X-ray imaging (FOP type) The S8658-01 is a FFT-CCD area image sensor specifically developed for X-ray imaging. Since a FOS (Fiber Optic plate with Scintillator) to convert Xrays into visible light is mounted on the CCD chip, X-ray images can be captured in fine detail. Three CCD chips are linearly arranged in close proximity to form a long and narrow sensor format. Effective size of each active area is 73.728 (H) × 6.144 (V) mm2, so the overall active area length of the three chips is up to 220 mm in length. Each CCD chip has 1536 × 128 pixels and the pixel size is 48 × 48 μm. When used in TDI operation mode which is a special feature of this CCD image sensor, even X-ray images of a moving object can be clearly acquired, making S8658-01 ideal for non-destructive inspection of products carried on a belt conveyor, etc. Features - 1536 (H) × 128 (V) (× 3 chips) - X-ray sensitive area: 220 × 6 mm - Pixel size: 48 × 48 μm - Slit-like image of 220 mm long by aligning 3 CCD chips together - TDI (Time Delay Integration) operation - 100 % fill factor - Wide dynamic range - Low dark current - MPP operation
