CCD Resolution Calculator. Calculate the resoution in arc seconds per pixel of a CCD with a particular telescope. Formula: ( Pixel Size / Telescope Focal Length ) X 206.265. CCD Pixel Size. µm. Telescope Focal Length. mm. = Resolution:
Where: Object Size is the size of the object as it appears on the CCD.; CCD Size is the size of the CCD sensor.; Object Distance is the distance from the lens to the object.; Focal Length is the focal length of the lens.; Impact on Society. The understanding and ability to calculate the size of an object using CCDs has significantly contributed to technological advancements in numerous fields ...
Simply enter the telescope's focal length, the camera's pixel size and your sky's seeing conditions to determine if they are a good match :-) A few notes: We are assuming OK seeing is between 2-4” FWHM and a resolution between 0.67” and 2” per pixel is the sweet spot. Over 2” is under-sampling and under 0.67" is over-sampling.
This calculator finds the minimum detectable object size per pixel, the total area to be viewed, and the field of view of the lens, based on data entered for the CCD size and resolution, the focal length of the lens, and the distance from the lens to the object being targeted. Enter a numeric value for the lens focal length; the default is 10mm ...
This calculator finds the minimum detectable object size per pixel, the total area to be viewed, and the field of view of the lens, based on data entered for the CCD size and resolution, the focal length of the lens, and the distance from the lens to the object being targeted. Each camera with lens has a CCD size and focal length.
CCD Calculator. Select a CCD camera and telescope (or enter an actual focal length and ratio of your telescope) from the dropdown lists below. If you enter an actual focal length and ratio then any selected telescope will be ignored and the extender/reducer factor will be applied to this entered value. You may also change the binning to see the ...
This calculator finds the maximum lens focal length and the appropriate minimum field of view, based on data entered for the CCD size, the distance from the lens to the object, and the maximum size of the target object to be imaged. Select the CCD size from the options in the drop box or select CUSTOM.
