Advantages and features of the ASI MC294MCPro color camera:
- USB 3.0 for a fast download - can also be used with USB 2.0
- DDR3 memory buffer to help improve data transfer reliability. Additionally, the use of a memory buffer minimizes amp-glow, which is caused by the slow transfer speeds when the camera is used with a USB 2.0 port.
- Powerful Peltier cooling up to 45 °C below environment.
- Powerful Peltier cooling up to 35 °C below ambient
- Sensitive CMOS sensor with 23.2 mm diagonal - 11.7 megapixels
- Good resolution through 4.63 µm pixels
- Comes with AR protection window - full transmission also in IR. If infrared should be blocked, an IR-cut filter is necessary.
- Distance from T2 connection thread (female) to camera sensor: 17.5 mm
- Very high sensitivity - QE more than 75% - ideal astronomy camera for dim objects
- 14bit ADC
- HCG mode - if gain is higher than 120 (12 dB), read noise is reduced below 2e- - result: low-noise images despite extremely high sensitivity.
- Full well capacity 63700e - even bright stars do not burn out anymore, you get a better signal-to-noise ratio.
USB 3.0 Port & USB2.0 HUB:
- USB 3.0 Port: Provide 5Gb bandwidth to make it possible for ASI294 Pro to run at 16 fps (14bit, normal mode) or 19 fps (12bit, high speed mode) at full resolution(11.7Mega).
- USB 2.0 HUB: can connect with various accessories, such as filter wheel, guide camera and electronic focuser, so you can better manage your cables. The ASI294 Pro includes two short 0.5m USB 2.0 cables. The integrated USB 2.0 hub is powered by the external power source if you connect one.
