Now features regulated set-point fan assisted cooling down typically to -35c below ambient, ultra low read noise and a new compact, light-weight body. 

The SXVR-H9 ExView camera is built around the superb Sony ExView CCD with 1392 x 1040 pixels in a 8.9 x 6.7mm array.

The peak QE is approximately 67% at 540nM and exceeds 50% at H-alpha wavelengths. This exceptional QE, super-low dark signal and excellent anti-blooming characteristics make the H9 one of the most successful imaging cameras on the market.

• Large, high resolution 'Exview' CCD chip, with 1,447,680 x 6.45uM pixels in a 9 x 6.7mm array

• Exceptionally high QE over an extremely wide spectral range from near UV to deep IR

• Exceptionally low dark signal - No dark frames necessary for most deep sky objects

• Exceptionally effective anti-blooming with minimal effect on linearity and no lost active area

• Built-in very high speed USB 2.0 interface for sub-1 second downloads

• Built-in autoguider interface and output - compatible with the optional dedicated external guide camera

• Built-in dual serial ports for accessory control - directly drive filter wheels, GOTO 'scopes etc.

• Single USB cable control for all features - get rid of that dangerous cable tangle!

• Only ONE computer needed to control all of the devices and functions

• Very low power consumption. Less than 1 amp at 12v DC

• Compact and lightweight - less than 400 grams load on the 'scope!

• CCD type: Sony ICX285AL Exview HAD CCD with ultra low dark current, extended IR response and vertical anti-blooming.

• CCD quality: Grade 1 or better - No bad columns, no dead pixels, no more than 6 'hot' pixels (saturated in <10 seconds).

• CCD Full resolution Pixel data: Pixel size: 6.45uM x 6.45uM, Image format: 1392 x 1040 pixels

• CCD Image area: 8.98mm (Horizontal) x 6.7mm (Vertical).

• Spectral Response: QE max at 540nM (~65%), 50% roll-off at 400nM and 750nM. 

• Readout Noise: Less than 12 electrons RMS - typically ONLY 4 electrons! 

• Full-well capacity: Greater than 27,000 e- (unbinned)

• Anti-blooming: Overload margin greater than 800x.

• Dark current: Dark frame saturation time greater than 100 hours. Less than 0.02 electrons/second @ + 10C ambient.

• Data format: 16 bits.

• System gain:  0.45 electrons per ADU

• Computer Interface: Built-in USB 2.0 compatible interface. 

• Image download time: Typically 0.6 seconds full resolution using USB 2.0, approximately 2 seconds with USB 1.1.

• Power requirements: 115VAC / 240VAC @ 12VA, or 12VDC @ 750mA max.

• Cooling system: Regulated Setpoint Cooling with fan assisted cooling, typically down to -35c below ambient temperature.
  

• Size: Compact black-anodised aluminium barrel with 42mm 'T2' thread at the CCD window end & input/output plugs at rear.

• Weight: approx. 350g.
