Xeva-2.5-320: Superior performance, reliable research

The Xeva-2.5-320 unit is a compact digital camera, operating a HgCdTe detectyor array (up to 2.5 µm) with 320 x 256 pixel resolution. It outputs 14 bit data and comes in a 60 Hz, 100 Hz or 200 Hz version.

The camera interfaces to a PC via standard USB 2.0 or CameraLink and comes with a custom frame grabber card or can interface to standard frame grabber cards such as the NI-1428.

Each camera is delivered with a graphical user interface Xeneth, which offers direct access to various camera settings such as exposure time and operating temperature. Through its advanced thermo-mechanical design, the Xeva-2.5-320 achieves excellent performance levels using a TE4-cooled device operating down to 200K or below.
