With the advantage of low readout noise and high-speed readout, CMOS technology has revolutionized astronomical imaging. A back-illuminated, high-sensitivity, astronomical imaging camera is the ideal choice for astro-imagers. The QHY600 Series uses the Sony IMX455, a full frame (35mm format), back-illuminated sensor with 3.76um pixels and native 16-bit A/D. This sensor is available in both monochrome and colour versions. The QHY600 Series ends the days of non-16 bit CMOS cameras.

The QHY600PH-ML Monochrome Lite version is a shorter and less expensive version of the QHY600PH-M. It has a smaller DDR3 buffer and standard back focus, meaning it may not be able to be paired with an OAG. Please make sure that this version is appropriate for your imaging train.

Specifications for the QHY600PH-L

Model	QHY600PH-ML (Lite Version)
CMOS Sensor	SONY IMX455
Mono/Color	Monochrome
FSI/BSI	BSI
Pixel Size	3.76um x 3.76um
Effective Pixel Area	95766388 （96006422 with overscan and optically black area)
Effective Pixels	61.17 Megapixels (Effective area.
Sensor Size	Full Frame 36mm x 24mm
A/D Sample Depth	16-bit (0-65535 levels) at 1X1 binning 18-bit at 2X2, 19-bit at 3X3, 20-bit at 4X4 software binning QHY600 uses the software digital binning for 22binning. With digital sum, 2*2binning will be four 16-bit summed then it is 18-bit.
Full Well Capacity (1×1, 2×2, 3×3)	Standard Mode >51ke- / >204ke- / >408ke- Super Full Well Mode >80ke- / >320ke- / >720ke-
Full Frame Rate	USB3.0 Port Image Transfer Speed Full Frame Size: 4.0FPS (8-bit output) Full Frame Size: 2.5FPS (16-bit output) 7.2FPS at 9600×3194, 22.5FPS at 9600×1080, 28FPS at 9600×768, 47FPS at 9600×480, 160FPS at 9600×100, Full Frame Size: 4.0FPS (16-bit output)
Readout Noise	1.0e- to 3.7e- (Standard Mode)
Dark Current	0.0022e-/p/s @ -20C 0.0046e-/p/s @ -10C
Exposure Time Range	40us – 3600sec
Unity Gain*	25 (Extended Full Well Mode) * *With the improvement of the CMOS technology, the 16bit CMOS camera has been released, like QHY600/268/411/461. For these cameras, even in lowest gain it has beyond the requirement of unit gain (less than 1e/ADU due to sufficient samples) So you can directly set gain 0 as start. Please note QHY600/268C/411/461 has extend full well mode. In this mode you still need to find out the unit gain position.
