STA1600

The STA1600 is our flagship 10560 x 10560 CCD with 9 μm pixels.  It is currently available front or backside illuminated, with 16 high-speed dual stage (> 10 MHz) or low noise single stage (<= 3 MHz) outputs.  MPP operation for lower dark current is also optional.  More information including link to datasheet available here. Feel free to contact us for information on other variants or packages.

ARCHON

Archon is a high performance modular CCD controller developed by Semiconductor Technology Associates, Inc (STA).  An Archon system receives configuration information from and sends status and image data to a host PC via a gigabit Ethernet connection (either copper or fiber).  Power is supplied to Archon through a circular connector carrying the DC voltages necessary for a particular system.  The CCD to be operated is connected to Archon through a custom interface board, built to route signals from the CCD cabling to the internal Archon module connectors. More information including links to the price list and manual are available here. Feel free to contact us for information on other variants or packages.

STA4850

The STA4850 is our current high performance full frame 4080 x 4080 CCD with 15 μm pixels.  It is back illuminated, packaged on a highly stable AlSi substrate, and is available in 30um epitaxial and 100um deep depletion variants.  More information including a link to the datasheet available here.  Feel free to contact us for additional information.

STA4150

The STA4150 is a high performance full frame 4096 x 4096 CCD with 15 μm pixels.  It is currently available front or backside illuminated, with four low noise single stage (<= 3 MHz) outputs.  MPP operation for lower dark current is also optional.  More information including link to datasheet available here. Feel free to contact us for information on other variants or packages.
