Teledyne DALSA’s 32k TDI camera delivers the industry’s highest resolution in line scan imaging
February 2020 by Marc Jacob
Teledyne DALSA, a Teledyne Technologies is pleased to announce the release of its newest charge-domain CMOS TDI camera – the Linea HS 32k TDI camera using patent-pending pixel offset technology.
The Linea HS 32k uses two 16k/5?m TDI arrays with pixel offset. Two 16k/5?m images are captured in real time, then reconstructed to achieve a higher resolution image of 32k/2.5?m. This upconversion significantly enhances detectability for subpixel defects. One advantage of the patent-pending pixel offset technology is that existing lighting and 16k/5?m lenses can be used without sacrifice in responsivity and MTF with a smaller physical pixel size.
Combined with Teledyne’s Xtium™2 CLHS series of high-performance frame grabbers, these new products represent a breakthrough in data throughput. Built on field-proven technology, the next generation CLHS fiber optic interface provides reliable and high throughput data transmission. Fiber optic cables lower system costs, offer longer cable lengths (up to 300 m), are immune to electromagnetic radiation in industrial environments. Teledyne DALSA’s Xtium2 family of high-performance frame grabbers feature the PCI Express Gen 3 x8 platform.
Key Features:
• Up to 150 kHz line rate in 32k/2.5um resolutions, or 5 Gpix/sec
• Compatible with existing lighting and lenses for 16k/5?m
• Very low noise and high sensitivity
• Active pixel assisted alignment
_• Camera Link HS fiber optic interface for high reliability and long cable data transmission
• Lowers system costs
