Driver circuit for CCD image sensor
C11860
For CCD image sensor S11850-1106
The C11860 is a driver circuit developed for CCD image sensor S11850-1106. By connecting the C11860 to a PC through the
USB 2.0 interface, you can use the PC to convert the sensor’s analog video signal into digital output and acquire the result
into the PC. The C11860 consists of (1) a sensor circuit board that drives the sensor, (2) an interface circuit board that drives
the sensor circuit board and performs data communication with the PC, and (3) a temperature control circuit board for con-
trolling the sensor cooling. The sensor circuit board and interface circuit board are connected using a flexible cable. The
sensor circuit board is compact, making it easy to be installed in optical systems. The interface circuit board has an external
trigger I/O connector that can be used to synchronize with external devices. This product comes with application software
(DcIc-USB) that runs on Windows 7 (32-bit, 64-bit). It can be used to easily control the C11860 from the PC. The product
also includes a DLL that the user can use to create original C11860 control programs.
