Yes, that's the case with my STX16803, but the downside is it's behind the filter train. Newer cameras have the chip integrated with the filter-wheel, but ahead of the filters, plus have a built in optic to give the guide chip a wider field of view. The system still allows the guide and imaging CCD's to sit at the same focal plane in a similar manner to an OAG.
