Application context

Why this design is used

Scientific imaging

ICMOS14000KPA: The Aptina MT9F002 (C) sensor, 14MP (4096×3288) resolution, and 1.4 µm × 1.4 µm pixels defines the sensitivity, sampling and field coverage available for Scientific imaging. The 2.7 fps @ 4096×3288 frame-rate listing also sets the fastest full-frame acquisition regime.

Instrument integration

ICMOS14000KPA: The Aptina MT9F002 (C) sensor, 14MP (4096×3288) resolution, and 1.4 µm × 1.4 µm pixels defines the sensitivity, sampling and field coverage available for Instrument integration. The 2.7 fps @ 4096×3288 frame-rate listing also sets the fastest full-frame acquisition regime.

System integration

Integration and compatibility

Use these checks to connect ICMOS14000KPA 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: Aptina MT9F002 (C) · Resolution: 14MP (4096×3288)
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: 2.7 fps @ 4096×3288 · Interface: USB2.0 (UVC)
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: Not supported (no external trigger)
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: 65.3 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 ICMOS14000KPA

What lens mount is required for the ICMOS14000KPA?

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 ICMOS14000KPA use?

Sensor: Aptina MT9F002 (C) · Resolution: 14MP (4096×3288). 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 ICMOS14000KPA connect to the acquisition computer?

Frame Rate: 2.7 fps @ 4096×3288 · Interface: USB2.0 (UVC). 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 ICMOS14000KPA support hardware triggering?

GPIO: Not supported (no external trigger). 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 ICMOS14000KPA?

Dynamic Range: 65.3 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.
