System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect I3ISPM01500KPA to the surrounding optical, mechanical and control system. Every value shown is taken from this model's own specification record.
- Lens and microscope interface
- Lens Mount: C-mount
- Use a lens image circle that covers the sensor and check flange distance before adding C/CS, F-mount or M42 adapters.
- Sensor and sampling
- Sensor: Sony IMX273LQR · Resolution: 1.5 MP (1440×1080)
- Match pixel pitch to the diffraction-limited spot the optics deliver. Sampling finer than the optics resolve multiplies data volume without adding information; sampling coarser discards resolution you have paid for.
- Interface and data rate
- Frame Rate: 227.2 fps @ 1440×1080; 382.7 fps @ 720×540 · Interface: USB3.0
- Confirm the host can sustain the interface bandwidth continuously, not in burst. A camera that outruns the write path stalls acquisition rather than dropping quietly to a lower rate.
- Hardware synchronization
- GPIO: 1 opto-isolated input, 1 opto-isolated output, 1 non-isolated I/O port
- Confirm edge polarity, pulse-width limits and whether each line is opto-isolated before connecting TTL or GPIO signals. A software exposure command is not equivalent to a hardware trigger.
- Cooling and noise floor
- Dynamic Range: 73.6 dB
- Judge these figures at the exposure time you will actually use. Cooling matters where dark current accumulates over seconds; read noise dominates short exposures where it never does.
Technical FAQ
Integration questions for I3ISPM01500KPA
What lens mount is required for the I3ISPM01500KPA?
Lens Mount: C-mount. Use a lens image circle that covers the sensor and check flange distance before adding C/CS, F-mount or M42 adapters.
What sensor and pixel pitch does the I3ISPM01500KPA use?
Sensor: Sony IMX273LQR · Resolution: 1.5 MP (1440×1080). Match pixel pitch to the diffraction-limited spot the optics deliver. Sampling finer than the optics resolve multiplies data volume without adding information; sampling coarser discards resolution you have paid for.
How does the I3ISPM01500KPA connect to the acquisition computer?
Frame Rate: 227.2 fps @ 1440×1080; 382.7 fps @ 720×540 · Interface: USB3.0. Confirm the host can sustain the interface bandwidth continuously, not in burst. A camera that outruns the write path stalls acquisition rather than dropping quietly to a lower rate.
Does the I3ISPM01500KPA support hardware triggering?
GPIO: 1 opto-isolated input, 1 opto-isolated output, 1 non-isolated I/O port. Confirm edge polarity, pulse-width limits and whether each line is opto-isolated before connecting TTL or GPIO signals. A software exposure command is not equivalent to a hardware trigger.
What is the noise performance of the I3ISPM01500KPA?
