Imperx Introduces "Cool" Cameras for Low-Noise Applications
Submitted by nestorb on Fri, 2007-06-08 17:35. Many scientific and low light-level applications face challenges from thermal noise in the CCD sensor. Controlling this noise allows cameras to operate with long exposure times and provide greater pixel-by pixel accuracy. Because thermal noise decreased by 3 dB for every 6C drop in temperature, the best way to control thermal noise is to cool the image sensor as much as possible.
