Product catalog summary
Technical Specifications
The Edge 4.2 bi is a cooled sCMOS camera featuring a back-illuminated sensor with a resolution of 2048 x 2048 pixels and a pixel size of 6.5 µm. It offers a quantum efficiency of up to 95% and can be deep-cooled to -25°C. The camera supports selectable input windows and has a compact design.

Sensor Details
The camera uses a scientific CMOS (bi sCMOS) sensor with a rolling shutter mode. It has a full well capacity of 48,000 e-, readout noise of 1.8 med e- / 1.9 rms e-, and a dynamic range of up to 88.5 dB. The spectral range is 370 nm to 1100 nm, with a dark current of 0.2 e-/pixel/s at -25°C.

Camera System
The Edge 4.2 bi supports a frame rate of 40 fps at full resolution, with exposure times ranging from 10 µs to 20 s. It features a 16-bit dynamic range A/D conversion and a pixel scan rate of 46.0 MHz. The camera offers horizontal and vertical binning options and region of interest (ROI) adjustments.

Cooling and Interface
The camera employs a Peltier cooling method adjustable from -25°C to +20°C, with forced air and water cooling options. It includes USB 3.1 Gen 1 data interface and SMA connectors for trigger input and output signals.

Frame Rate Table
The camera supports various frame rates depending on resolution, ranging from 40 fps at 2048 x 2048 to 520 fps at 2048 x 128.

General Specifications
The camera is powered via USB 3.1 Gen 1 or a power connector, with a typical power consumption of 4.5 W over USB and up to 22.0 W over the power connector. It operates within a temperature range of +10°C to +40°C and a humidity range of 10% to 80% (non-condensing).

Software and Applications
Camware software is available for camera control and image acquisition, with a free SDK for customization on Windows and Linux platforms. The camera is suitable for various applications, including microscopy, high-speed imaging, and industrial inspection.

Certifications and Contact Information
The camera is CE/FCC certified and manufactured by PCO AG in Germany. Contact information for PCO offices in Europe, America, Asia, and China is provided for further inquiries.
