WidePIX CHROMATIC 25

Large area detector with exceptional dynamic range and an outstanding frame rate

The WidePIX CHROMATIC 25 offers a large Medipix3 chip equipped sensitive area. The detector’s sensor surface offers 1,638,400 pixels (70x70mm) in a square array of 25 hybrid detector electronics tiles. They are attached to a CdTe sensor.

It can collect up to 170 frames per second and stream data at the rate of 5 gigabits per second. All segments are fully synchronized, and the device is compatible with external triggering.

The main benefit of the WidePIX CHROMATIC 25 is its outstanding dynamic range. Thanks to its ability to capture energy range above 8keV and 24bit counter depth, it can capture 16,777,216 in each pixel. This allows users to use high flux without the image being overexposed.

Precise data collection and a clear image are ensured, as the sensor has no dark current.

The WidePIX CHROMATIC 25 was developed with sensitivity as first concern. Thanks to its wide field-of-view, it is suitable for imaging and differentiation of biological tissues and other light materials. This makes it a good choice for medical CTs, non-destructive testing and imaging of moving objects.

The detector offers to measure using the dual threshold mode. This allows for a spectrally sensitive image to be taken in a single measurement.

The Charge Summing Mode implemented in the pixel electronics provides hardware-based correction charge spread between pixels. This further considerably improves the detector spectral response and the quality of spectra measured in individual pixels.

The camera connects to a computer via five ethernet cables.
