The new Rigaku Saturn 724+ is the next generation of CCD camera for small molecule crystallography. Incorporating the newest and most sophisticated Kodak® CCD chip, the Saturn 724+ provides a new dimension in data quality, with a very fast readout speed, a large active area and broad dynamic range.
Perform rapid data collection
With the largest active area and fastest readout of any comparable small molecule CCD X-ray area detector, the Saturn 724+ is the perfect tool for fast data collection. The 4-port readout, with a total digitization speed of 8 MHz, delivers maximum data in minimal time.
Produce highest quality datasets
Optimized for molybdenum (Mo) radiation, the larger aperture of the Saturn 724+ enables collection of higher resolution data, with greater redundancy, at a given crystal-to-detector distance. The advanced full-frame CCD employed by the Saturn 724+ uses a proprietary 2-phase architecture and has high capacity pixels for extended dynamic range. With its 18-bit analog-to-digital (ADC) processing architecture, the Saturn 724+ is ideal for accurately measuring weak reflections.
To increase the sensitivity of the sensor, one of the two polysilicon gates was replaced with the transparent conductor indium-tin-oxide (ITO). Thus the design of the chip eliminates the need to resort to backside illumination and provides the intrinsically superior dark current characteristics needed to generate the highest quality data.
