About
The Radiation Hard Vidicon LI501-1MK is a specialized camera tube engineered for use in TV cameras that must operate reliably in conditions of high radiation, specifically up to 5·10^7 rad. This vidicon, released in 2009, has a guaranteed service life of 4 years and an estimated production/delivery time of 2 months. Its target is based on CdSe and it utilizes magnetic focusing and electrostatic deflection. While it does not have flight qualification, there is a possibility to adapt the product to customer requirements. Key performance specifications include a target active area of 6.6×8.8 mm, a maximum length of 90 mm, and a mass of 18 g. It operates with a heater voltage of 6.3 V, produces a signal current of at least 0.15 μA, and boasts a resolution of at least 600 TVL at the center and 550 TVL in the corners. The modulation depth at 400 TVL (at the center) is at least 55%, with a dark current of no more than 0.003 μA. The guaranteed operational life is 1000 hours.
