  • With a back-illuminated 20 megapixel Sony IMX183 monochrome CMOS sensor, the QHY183 Monochrome Imaging Camera is able to provide greater sensitivity and higher quantum efficiency than cameras using traditional front-illuminated sensors
  • The Sony IMX183 offers especially low readout noise as low as 1 electron and contains 2.4 µm x 2.4 µm pixels in a 5544 x 3694 array
  • Anti-dew and moisture technology comes in the form of a sealed CMOS chamber with silicon gel tube socket and heated optical window
  • The QHY183M sensor cools down to -40ºC below ambient using a two-stage TEC cooling and temperature regulation system
  • Data transfer reliability is ensured via an integrated 128MB DDRII image buffer

  • Description

    QHY183M Cooled CMOS Astronomy Camera

     

    • The QHY183M includes the 20 megapixel Sony IMX183 monochrome CMOS Exmor R sensor.
    • The Exmor R is a back-illuminated sensor that retains the advantages of CMOS high-speed operation but uses back-illumination technology for super low readout noise and high quantum efficiency.
    • The QHY183M offers a QE of 84% and readout noise as low as 1 electron!
    • The 1" sensor has an image array of 5544 x 3694 active pixels that are 2.4 µm in size for high resolution results even with smaller telescopes.
    • A two-stage TEC regulated cooling system cools the sensor to -40ºC to -45ºC below ambient temperature.
    • Other features include a 128MB DDR Memory Buffer for stable and reliable data transfer, a heated optical window and desiccant plug socket to help control dew and moisture, and the use of Anti-Amp Glow technology to keep CMOS amplifier glow to a minimum.
