Micro lenses cover the surface of the CCD to focus the light through the transparent gate to further increase optical response. Low dark current and high pixel charge capacity result in a dynamic range exceeding 69db. The KAF 16200 sensor has excellent response values between 400nm and 1000nm with peak QE over 58%.
#FRAME SENSOR DIAGONAL FULL#
The sensor employs a true two-phase charge transfer technology with a transparent gate that significantly increases optical response compared to traditional front illuminated full frame sensors.

The 6 µm sized pixels provides extremely high resolution at long focal lengths and superb wide field images at short focal lengths. Micro lenses cover the surface of the CCD to focus the light through the transparent gate to further increase the optical response of the sensor. Low dark current of 8e- and a 40,000e- well depth. The KAF-16200 sensor has a photoactive array of 4490 W x 3599 H pixels. The 6162-model camera employs an On Semiconductor KAF-16200 16-megapixel full-frame CCD image sensor.

#FRAME SENSOR DIAGONAL SOFTWARE#
The 6162 camera system is supported by industry leading image acquisition software plus a full camera control API is available for creating custom Windows or Linux applications. The ‘wsg’ model is supplied with the Off-Axis Guider, Integrated Guider Port (IGP). The ‘ws’ model comes with a shutter and filter wheel installed. The camera is available with or without an Off-Axis Guider and the choice of a five or eight position filter wheel. The large APS-H 16mp CCD sensor with a 35mm diagonal works happily using 2” mounted or 50.8 mm unmounted filters on scopes as fast as f/2.8 with minimal vignetting. The ability to ‘bin’ the CCD means the QSI-6162 is suitable for focal lengths right up to 2.5m and still stay around 1 arc second per pixel (recommended for successful imaging). The 6-micron pixel size make this camera the ideal imaging partner for a wide range of focal length telescopes. The QSI-6162 model camera model employs a KAF-16200, 16 megapixel, full frame CCD image sensor with microlens technology that has been specifically produced for astrophotography.
