QHY4040 FSI Cooled Scientific Cameras (CMT, CMN)
Large Area Sensor, 36.9 x 36.9mm 4K x 4K
The QHY4040 uses a GSENSE4040FSI front-illuminated, 16.8 Megapixel, 36mm square, scientific CMOS image sensor. With a five transistor (5T) HDR pixel design and a 9μm pitch, the sensor can achieve 3.7e- read noise and 74ke- full well capacity in HDR mode. The QHY4040 camera achieves 20 FPS at full resolution with USB 3.0. This makes the QHY4040 an ideal camera for various applications. The GSENSE4040 sensor is offered in two variations: CMN and CMT. CMN is a monochrome sensor without microlens array and is protected by a removable glass lid, which is ideal for X-ray imaging, charged particle detection, and micro-CT application; while CMT is a monochrome sensor with microlens array and sealed with D263T lids with anti-reflective coating on both sides, ideal for medical imaging and astronomy applications.
Multiple Pixel Clocks, 20 FPS at Full Resolution
The QHY4040 has a USB3.0 high-speed interface with up to 5GB of bandwidth. The camera achieves 1:1 video output at 20 frames per second (8-bit) with 4096 x 4096 resolution or 8FPS in low noise 12-bit mode. As different clock rates affect read noise performance, the QHY4040 supports five readout clocks and 8FPS, 12FPS, 16FPS, 18FPS and 20FPS frame rates.74% QE, 86dB Dynamic Range, 3.7e- Read Noise
Currently, the QHY4040 is only available in a front illuminated version. The QHY4040 has an ultra-high dynamic range of 86dB and an extremely low readout noise of 3.7e-. This makes the camera exceptional for astronomical imaging, medical imaging, life sciences, fluorescence detection, trace sciences.Dual Stage Regulated TE Coolling -35C
The QHY4040 has 2-stage thermoelectric cooling that reduces the sensor temperature to -35 °C below ambient. TE cooling significantly reduces dark current and produces cleaner, lower noise images over long exposures.Astronomical Imaging, Biological Imaging, X-Ray Imaging, Dynamic DR
The high sensitivity, large field of view, 9um pixel size and large dynamic range are all ideal for astronomical imaging. The large 36.9mm x 36.9mm sensor with high resolution, high quality Image output also makes the QHY4040 ideal for Biological imaging. For dynamic medical x-ray DR imaging the QHY4040 sensor size matches most industry-standard DR lenses and the high frame rate and low readout noise performance is ideal for X-ray imaging.Further detail information can be found on the original webpage of QHYCCD :

QHY HISTORY
QHYCCD Cameras – Discover New Horizons COMING SOON COMING SOONCOMING SOONCOMING SOON From childhood Dr. Qiu Hongyun held a keen interest in nature, science and technology. As a young boy he would go to the chemical factory where his father worked and do chemistry experiments in the lab. He also enjoyed tinkering with electronics and made small board projects and a radio. In the 5th grade he read in a Science magazine about the approach of a comet. He tried to see the comet and although the toy binoculars he was able to find failed to be useful in spotting the comet, the effort and excitement of the event generated an interest in astronomy and that interest led to his making a small refractor telescope and later to attempt astrophotography with film. He had no camera only a homemade film holder. He would develop the film himself. By the time he was in Middle School, his interest in astronomy had grown. As a science project, he made an ultra-long zoom lens (about 800-3000mm) and got very good results with it. The lens earned him an award for invention and even an award for innovation his first year of University study....
