S8984, S8985-02
S8984 is an FFT-CCD image sensor ideal for intra-oral X-ray imaging in dental diagnosis. S8984 has about 2 mega (1700 × 1200) pixels each of
which is 20 × 20 µm. The fiber optic plate (FOP) used as an input window is as thin as 1.5 mm but highly resistant to X-ray irradiation, making
S8984 very reliable even over a long-term operation. The scintillator coated on the FOP is optimized to have high X-ray sensitivity and high
resolution (20 Lp/mm).
S8985-02 is an easy-to-use X-ray imaging module using S8984, with added functions such as a cable assembly and X-ray trigger circuit. S8985-
02 is pin compatible with S8981-02 (number of pixels is increased). S8985-02 is advanced type of S8985 and adapted both AC and DC X-ray
sources.
