3.4 Analog to Digital Converter (ADC)
ASI585MC Pro records in 12bit ADC and 10bit ADC. You can image at a faster frame rate if you use 10bit ADC
(high speed mode). Or you may also set an ROI if you want even faster frame rates.
Below are the maximum speeds of ASI585MC Pro running at different USB transmission modes.
3.5 Two-stage TEC Cooling
Thanks to the two-stage TEC cooling, ASI585MC Pro can lower the CMOS sensor temperature to more than 35
degrees Celsius below ambient temperature, which can greatly reduce dark current generation and sensor noise
even during extended exposure times.
*The Delta T 35℃ is tested at 30℃ ambient temperature. It might get down when the cooling system is working
for a long time. Also, as the ambient temperature falls, the Delta T would decrease.
Below is the dark current curve of ASI585MC Pro at the temperature from -20℃ to 30℃.
