System integration
Integration and compatibility
Use these checks to connect SWIR331KMB-CL1000 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: China-made 640×512 (InGaAs CMOS) · 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: 1000 fps @ 640×512 · Interface: CameraLink Full
- 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
- 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: 69.2 dB (LG), 63.2 dB (MG), 57.4 dB (HG)
- 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 SWIR331KMB-CL1000
What lens mount is required for the SWIR331KMB-CL1000?
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 SWIR331KMB-CL1000 use?
Sensor: China-made 640×512 (InGaAs CMOS) · 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.
How does the SWIR331KMB-CL1000 connect to the acquisition computer?
Frame Rate: 1000 fps @ 640×512 · Interface: CameraLink Full. 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 SWIR331KMB-CL1000 support hardware triggering?
