Features

The GO-5101M-PMCL/GO-5101C-PMCL is an industrial progressive scan camera equipped with a
2/3-inch global shutter CMOS image sensor with 5.1 effective megapixels (2464 × 2056). The unit is
compact and lightweight in design and is equipped with Camera Link Ver. 2.0 compatible interface.
 The GO-5101M-PMCL produces monochrome output while the GO-5101C-PMCL produces Bayer output.
Compact and lightweight
The unit's compact size (approx. 29 × 29 × 41.5 mm, excluding lens mount) and lightweight design
(approx. 46 g) allows for easy assembly and installation.
Camera Link Ver. 2.0 compatible interface
• High-speed transfer at up to 850 MByte/s of uncompressed data, the ideal format for image
processing.
• Maximum cable length of 10 m.
• Support for PoCL (Power over Camera Link) allowing you to supply power to the camera via the
Camera Link cable.
Note
To power the camera via Camera Link, the frame grabber board you are using must support PoCL. You can also
supply power via the 4-pin connector. A separate power supply and/or conversion cable (not supplied) is required.
Output formats
You can choose from 8-bit, 10-bit, and 12-bit* output for both monochrome and Bayer.
* As the color camera cannot perform white balance when using 12-bit output, perform white balance on the
application.
High frame rate
The GO-5101M-PMCL and GO-5101C-PMCL are both capable of frame rates of up to 35.6 fps (8-bit
format) for full 5.1-megapixel output. Even faster frame rates can be achieved when binning is utilized
(GO-5101M-PMCL only) or when a smaller ROI (region of interest) is specified.
ALC (automatic level control) function
Combine the automatic gain control and automatic exposure control functions to allow handling of
changes in various brightnesses.
Variety of pre-process functions
• LUT (lookup table)
For programmable control over gamma and contrast.
• Gamma correction
Gamma can be set to 0.45, 0.60, or 1.0 (off).
• Shading correction (flat field and color shading)
Non-uniformity (i.e., shading) in the amount of light generated by the lens and lighting equipment can
be corrected.
• Bayer white balance (GO-5101C-PMCL only)
White balance can be automatically adjusted continuously. It can also be adjusted manually using R,
and B gain.
