Review PC Specifications for sCMOS cameras

This document provides the specifications of three different workstations from Dell which can be used to acquire images from the Neo 5.5, Zyla 5.5 and Zyla 4.2 USB3 and 10-tap sCMOS cameras.

Andor has provided guidelines as to the amount of data that can be acquired from each workstation based on our test results. For each specification we can recommend the suitability for 3-tap, USB 3.0 or 10-tap sCMOS and the capacity of the PC RAM or SSD for sustained acquisitions.

The specifications for all workstations are outlined below. These PC’s are available to order from Andor and the product codes are defined below.

*It is important to note that the testing of these PC’s was performed using the Neo/Zyla and Andor Solis software. We cannot guarantee that the same results would be achieved using other devices and software packages.
