CCD multichannel detector head

Designed for back-thinned CCD area image sensor

C7973 is a high sensitivity multichannel detector head for use with back-thinned FFT-CCD area image sensors (S7963, S7964, S7965) that offer high UV sensitivity and quantum efficiency. C7973 incorporates a low-noise driver/amplifier circuit that provides reliable operation from simple external signals. C7973 includes a highly stable temperature controller that cools the sensor to a preset temperature level (Ts= -10 ?C) as soon as the power is turned on. If the cooler fails and causes internal circuitry to overheat, the built-in protection circuit automatically turns off the power to the thermoelectric cooler. Despite its compact size, the housing configuration is designed for good heat dissipation, and threaded mounting holes on the front panel allow connections to other devices such as monochrometers.
