Integration and compatibility

Use these checks to connect SWIR3000KMA-10G 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 IMX993-AABA-C (InGaAs) · Resolution: 3.0 MP (2048×1536)
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: 8 Bit: 220 fps @ 2048×1536, 415 fps @ 1024×768; 10 Bit: 200 fps @ 2048×1536, 380 fps @ 1024×768; 12 Bit: 118 fps @ 2048×1536, 220 fps @ 1024×768 · Interface: 10GigE
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, 2 non-isolated I/O
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: 51.36 dB (HCG); 51.47 dB (LCG)
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 SWIR3000KMA-10G

What lens mount is required for the SWIR3000KMA-10G?

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 SWIR3000KMA-10G use?

Sensor: Sony IMX993-AABA-C (InGaAs) · Resolution: 3.0 MP (2048×1536). 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 SWIR3000KMA-10G connect to the acquisition computer?

Frame Rate: 8 Bit: 220 fps @ 2048×1536, 415 fps @ 1024×768; 10 Bit: 200 fps @ 2048×1536, 380 fps @ 1024×768; 12 Bit: 118 fps @ 2048×1536, 220 fps @ 1024×768 · Interface: 10GigE. 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 SWIR3000KMA-10G support hardware triggering?

GPIO: 1 opto-isolated input, 1 opto-isolated output, 2 non-isolated I/O. 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 SWIR3000KMA-10G?

Dynamic Range: 51.36 dB (HCG); 51.47 dB (LCG). 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.
