Application context

Why this design is used

Scientific imaging

IUA2100KPA(NIR): The Sony IMX462LQR sensor, 2.1MP (1920×1080) resolution, and 2.9 µm × 2.9 µm pixels defines the sensitivity, sampling and field coverage available for Scientific imaging. The 120.3 fps @ 1920×1080 frame-rate listing also sets the fastest full-frame acquisition regime.

Instrument integration

IUA2100KPA(NIR): The Sony IMX462LQR sensor, 2.1MP (1920×1080) resolution, and 2.9 µm × 2.9 µm pixels defines the sensitivity, sampling and field coverage available for Instrument integration. The 120.3 fps @ 1920×1080 frame-rate listing also sets the fastest full-frame acquisition regime.

System integration

Integration and compatibility

Use these checks to connect IUA2100KPA(NIR) 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 IMX462LQR · Resolution: 2.1MP (1920×1080)
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: 120.3 fps @ 1920×1080 · Interface: USB3.0 (USB3.1 GEN1)
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 optically isolated input, 1 optically isolated output, 2 non-isolated input/output
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: 72 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 IUA2100KPA(NIR)

What lens mount is required for the IUA2100KPA(NIR)?

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 IUA2100KPA(NIR) use?

Sensor: Sony IMX462LQR · Resolution: 2.1MP (1920×1080). 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 IUA2100KPA(NIR) connect to the acquisition computer?

Frame Rate: 120.3 fps @ 1920×1080 · Interface: USB3.0 (USB3.1 GEN1). 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 IUA2100KPA(NIR) support hardware triggering?

GPIO: 1 optically isolated input, 1 optically isolated output, 2 non-isolated input/output. 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 IUA2100KPA(NIR)?

Dynamic Range: 72 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.
