TE-cooled options extend into the SWIR range (up to 2550 nm) with reduced dark current, while non-cooled sensors provide a cost-effective solution for NIR measurements up to 1700 nm.
Specialized sensors such as the Hamamatsu G11608 can even capture parts of the visible spectrum (500–1700 nm).
Understanding pixel count, line rate, and readout configurations (such as dual-port sensors) is key to optimizing speed and sensitivity.
Whether you’re integrating sensors into a spectrometer, designing a line-scan camera, or exploring custom optical setups, this guide breaks down the specifications that matter most.
