e2v’s next generation of line scan cameras are setting new, high standards for line rate and image quality. Thanks to e2v’s recently developed multi-line CMOS technology, the camera provides an unmatched 100,000 lines/s and combines high response with an extremely low noise level; this delivers high signal to noise ratio even when short integration times are required or when illumination is limited.

The 5μm pixel size is arranged in four active lines, ensuring optimal spatial resolution in both scanning and sensor directions with standard F-mount lenses. Vertical and horizontal binning functions allow the camera to be operated in a 8,192 pixels, 5μm x 5μm pixel pitch, 4 active CMOS lines mode or 4,096 pixels, 10μm x 10 μm pixel pitch, 2 active CMOS lines mode depending on the user settings. This versatile feature sets new standard for the next generation machine vision systems.
