Sydor Keck PAD
MHz-Scale Burst-Rate X-Ray Imaging.
Developed for high-speed, direct X-Ray imaging with ultra-low noise and burst-mode acquisition. Capture up to 8 consecutive frames at rates up to 6.7MHz with single-photon sensitivity. Ideal for synchrotron beamlines, dynamic compression experiments, and ultrafast diffraction studies.
Key Benefits
True MHz Burst Imaging
Acquire 8 high-resolution frames at burst rates up to 6.7 MHz.Single-Photon Sensitivity
Low noise floor allows detection of individual X-Ray photons, critical for low-flux or high-precision measurements.High Spatial Resolution
150 μm pixel pitch across a 2×4 tiled module (512×512 effective resolution) for detailed beam or material imaging.Flexible Energy Response
Available with Si (5–20 keV) or CdTe (>20 keV) sensors to suit a wide range of tender and hard X-Ray energies.Control Interface
Ethernet-based control with Sydor DataViewer Software. EPICS IOC available for integration into existing software control environments.

Mission-Ready Configuration
Includes tiled Keck-PAD module, thermoelectric cooling system, control electronics, and Sydor software suite for real-time imaging, control, and data acquisition. Fully compatible with EPICS environments. Optimized for synchrotron and high-energy lab conditions.
