Readout Noise (e-)

Photon etc is developing a new, affordable
SWIR camera sensitive from 800 nm to 2.6 µm.
Using a stirling micro cooler, our BOREA™
Camera reaches noise levels lower than its TE
cooled competitors. First designed to increase
the signal-to-noise ratio for faint flux
applications such as hyperspectral imaging,
this camera is also perfectly suited for
spectroscopy,
astronomy,
or
industrial
applications.
