C-RED 2 Lite is a compact high speed low noise TEC-stabilized SWIR camera, able to run at 600 FPS with 30 electrons readout noise. With an optimized algorithm for precise sensor temperature stabilization, C-RED 2 Lite does not make any compromise on camera performances.
640 x 512 InGaAs sensor
SWIR 0.9 - 1.7 μm
15 μm pixel pitch
70% QE, wavelength from 0.9 to 1.7 μm
Up to 600 fps full frame
The most recent addition to the C-RED family, C-RED 2 Lite is the stabilized version of C-RED 2 with no fan. It can also be watercooled for better performances with an optional cooling plate. With an optimized algorithm for precise sensor temperature stabilization, C-RED 2 Lite does not make any compromise on camera performances despite environmental fluctuations.
The camera integrates a 640 x 512 InGaAs PIN Photodiode detector with 15 μm pixel pitch for high resolution, which embeds an electronic shutter with integration pulses shorter than 5 μs. C-RED 2 Lite is specially designed for quantitative applications such as laser beam profiling, hyperspectral imaging, thermography, etc..
