Designed for front-illuminated CCD area image sensor
C7027 is a multichannel detector head for use with front-illuminated FFT-CCD area image sensors (S7017/S7847 series) that offer high UV
sensitivity and quantum efficiency. C7027 incorporates a low-noise driver/amplifier circuit that provides reliable operation from simple external
signals. C7027 includes a highly stable temperature controller that cools the sensor to a preset temperature level (Ts= -50 ˚C) as soon as the
power is turned on. If the cooler fails and causes internal circuitry to overheat, the built-in protection circuit automatically turns off the power to the
thermoelectric cooler. Despite its compact size, the housing configuration is designed for good heat dissipation, and threaded mounting holes on
the front panel allow connections to other devices such as monochrometers.

Since C7027 does not include aCCD area image sensor, so select the desired sensor and order itseparately.
*1: The FFT-CCD was originally designed as a two-dimensional image sensor. However, it can be operated like a linear image sensor
having a large active area by transferring all the pixel signals in the vertical direction to the horizontal register (this is referred to as
line binning).
Note: C7027 can be operated from C7557 multichannel detector head controller, but cannot be cooled below -50 °C due to cooling
*2: Including the circuit gain.
*3: Measured at 50 % of the full well capacity.
