The XCL-X700/V500 is a monochrome digital video
camera module. This camera module outputs digital
images utilizing LVDS via the digital interface
connector.
What is the Camera
Link?
The Camera Link is specifications defined for
industrial cameras, and the term used collectively
forcall products meeting these specifications. In the
Camera Link specification, digital parallel signals are
converted to LVDS serial signals and sent out from the
camera module. These signals are sent to the interface
board for the camera (frame grabber) via the cable, and
decoded to the original digital parallel signals in the
interface board. The XCL-X700/V500 is equipped
with a connector compatible with the Camera Link
specifications, and can be connected to any interface
board compatible with the XCL-X700/V500 using the
specified standard cable.
Features
Digital interface connector
Equipped with a Camera Link compatible connector.
The XCL-X700 can output a digital image at 30
frames per second; the XCL-V500 can output a digital
image at 60 frames per second.
XCL-X700/V500
Overview
High image quality
The XCL-X700 (XGA) has a progressive scan CCD of
800,000 pixels. The XCL-V500 (VGA) has a
progressive scan CCD of 330,000 pixels. Both cameras
produce high-resolution images. By adopting square
pixels, images can be processed using the original
aspect ratio without a converting procedure.
Various mode settings
Sending a command from the host device allows the
following mode settings.
• Gain
• Read mode: normal /binning
• High rate scan
• Synchronized input/output
• 75 Ω termination
• Shutter: Normal/Trigger shutter
• Shutter speed
External synchronization
HD (horizontal drive), VD (vertical drive) signals: The
camera module automatically detects the HD and VD
signals input and externally synchronized with those
signals.
Setting the operating speed by inputting
an external clock
You can operate the camera module at the desired
clock frequency (frame rate) by inputting external
clock signals of an arbitrary frequency from normal to
1/2.
