G3CMOS' Basic Characteristic G3CMOS camera is an Astronomy camera that adopts SONY Exmor, Exmor R and Exmor RS CMOS sensor as the image-picking device and USB3.0 is used as the data transfer interface. High sensitivity and low noise to achieve the CCD quality image is the most well-known advantages of G3CMOS series cameras. G3CMOS camera's hardware resolutions range from 2.3M to 20M and come with the integrated CNC aluminum alloy compact housing. G3CMOS camera comes with advanced video & image processing application (for astronomy application); which providing Windows/Linux/ OSX multiple platforms SDK and Native C/C++, C /VB.NET, DirectShow, Twain Control API; The G3CMOS camera family can be widely used in astronomy application due to their outstanding performance. The G3CMOS ' basic characteristic of G3CMOS camera is as follows: l SONY Exmor, Exmor R(Back-illuminated), Exmor RS CMOS sensor with USB3.0 interface; l Super high sensitivity; l Ultra low noise and low power dissipation by using column-parallel A/D conversion; l Rolling shutter or global shutter CMOS sensor; l Resolutions range from 2.3M to 20M; l External fan cooling, controllable; l Unique internal cooling structure to help heat radiation; l Guiding port for mount guiding; l Standard M42+1.25" mount camera; l CNC aluminum alloy housing; l Real-time 8/12/14/16bit depth switch(depending on sensor); l Long time exposure supported up to 1000s; l USB3.0 5 Gbps interface ensuring high frame rates; l With advanced video & image processing application; l Providing Windows/Linux/Mac OS multiple platforms SDK; l Native C/C++, C /VB.NET/VB.Net, DirectShow, Twain, LabView; Sensor& Size(mm) : 20M/IMX183(C) 1 "(4.8x3.6) Pixel(m) :2.4 x2.4 G Sensitivity :462mv with 1/30s 0.21mv with 1/30s Dark Signal FPS/Resolution:17.5@5440x3648 26@2736x1824 26@1824x1216 Binning :1x1, 2x2, 3x3 Exposure :0.1ms~1000s Other Specificationfor G3CMOS Camera Spectral Range Depends on the response of sensor (with cover glass, default configuration) 380-650nm (with IR-cut Filter, optional) White Balance ROI White Balance/ Manual RGB Adjustment/NA for Monochromatic Sensor Color Technique Ultra-FineTMColor Engine/NA for Monochromatic Sensor Capture/Control API Native C/C++, C /VB.NET, DirectShow, Twain and Labview Recording System Still Picture and Movie Cooling System* Electric fan Operating Environment Operating Temperature(in Centidegree) -10~ 50 Storage Temperature(in Centidegree) -20~ 60 Operating Humidity 30~80%RH Storage Humidity 10~60%RH Power Supply DC 5V over PC USB Port Software Environment Operating System MicrosoftWindowsXP / Vista / 7 / 8 / 10(32 & 64 bit) OSx(Mac OS X) Linux PC Requirements CPU: Equal to Intel Core2 2.8GHz or Higher Memory: 2GB or More USB Port: USB3.
