High speed 512 [times] 512 camera system

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6188973

Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory has been involved in the design of high speed solid state camera systems for over a decade. The latest camera system designed by the laboratory utilizes the CCD-13 multiport 512 [times] 5l2 CCD array, manufactured by English Electric Valve. Simultaneous readout from each port at a 20 MHz pixel rate allows this camera system to achieve up to 500 frames per second. A first goneration camera system was designed by LLNL to provide data on the CCD-13, and as proof of principle for the camera system electronics. The results of the tests involving this camera will be presented in this report. A second generation camera system has been designed which incorporates the knowledge gained from these tests, and is currently being manufactured. This system should be available for testing in September '92.
