• A camera can be custom-built with any commercially available CCD array. See On Semiconductor, E2V, Fairchild
• Any camera can be mounted on side, bottom, or projection chamber window port of the TEM.
• A side mount provides the largest field of view, up to twice that of film. A beam stop for electron diffraction is available.
• A bottom mount provides a field of view up to 150% of film.

1) Binning increases dynamic range
2) At -10°C unless otherwise noted. Dark signal doubling temperature 6.3 or 7°C average
3) Typical value. Slow scan mode reduces noise. See OEM specifications for CCD
4) Most SIA cameras capable of maximum exposure duration of 1 hour.
5) FPS - frames per second
6) Cameras with a full frame CCD array require TEM beam (blanker) control for TV mode
7) Operator can select CCD temperature from room temperature (25°C) to cooling limit, in 0.1°C increments. Optional cooling limit of -60°C available on request.
