The C9100 series gather all expected features: high gain, high signal to noise ratio, resolution and speed, thanks to a new generation EM-CCD sensor in a proprietary permanently sealed vacuum chamber evacuated to 10 -8 Torr.

With on-chip multiplication technology of the EM-CCD sensor the signal is drastically boosted while readout noise value is kept below 1 electron r.m.s. at high gain mode. The gain factor of the C9100-02 is up to 2000 and this camera is able to grab 30 frames per second keeping 14 bit dynamic range and full resolution of 1000 x 1000 pixel. The C9100-02 supports sub-array and binning modes, which enable high frame rate,100 frames per second or higher.

The C9100-02 is recommended for all applications requiring high gain, speed, good resolution, high dynamics and signal to noise ratio.
