Hamamatsu Photonics introduces the new S11637 and S12198 series of CMOS linear image sensors featuring electronic shutter and gain switching functionalities.
The S11637 series has a pixel pitch of 12.5µm; one-half that of our previous type, while the S12198 retains the 25µm pixel pitch of the previous type (S10453). Both sensors feature high UV sensitivity, a 10MHz maximum data rate and have a built-in timing generator, allowing operation with only start and clock pulse inputs.
With the features mentioned above and the wide dynamic range and excellent linearity, these sensors are ideally designed for applications such as spectrometry and image reading.
