The Condor™ 486EF is an ultra-sensitive, fiber-optic coupled camera for imaging phosphors or other x-ray electron scintillators. Applications that demand a large field of view and high optical throughput particularly benefit from the size and sensitivity of the Condor. The camera is based upon the CCD 486, a state-of-the-art, scientific grade, 4k x 4k sensor. At more than 60 x 60 mm2, the 486 is the largest commercially available CCD, and when coupled to a 1:1 imaging fiber-optic, it delivers unsurpassed optical throughput. The camera boasts a low noise, dual speed, four port readout architecture for superior speed and sensitivity. Dark current is minimized with regulated thermoelectric cooling to –25 °C. Linear, 16bit dynamic range and sophisticated features such as software control over binning and gain make the Condor the ultimate instrument for low light detection of electron and x-ray images. The Condor 486EF model is designed with the fiber-optic protruding from the vacuum chamber such that the user can utilize a wide range of phosphors or other fiber optic scintillators. In addition, this model is ideally suited for mating with the fiber optic output of other apparatus such as streak tubes or image intensifiers. For a version of this camera with internal fiber and phosphor, please see the Condor 486:90.
