System integration

Integration and compatibility

Use these checks to connect SWIR330KMB-UMV 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 IMX991-AABJ-C (InGaAs) · Resolution: 0.33 MP (640×512)
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: 428.1 fps @ 640×512, 807 fps @ 320×256; 12 Bit: 227.7 fps @ 640×512, 429.3 fps @ 320×256 · Interface: USB3
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
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: 59.6 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 SWIR330KMB-UMV

What lens mount is required for the SWIR330KMB-UMV?

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 SWIR330KMB-UMV use?

Sensor: Sony IMX991-AABJ-C (InGaAs) · Resolution: 0.33 MP (640×512). 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.
