Introduction - DAQ system PCIe-FRM24 C User Manual

1. Introduction

PCIe-FRM24_C is an upgrade board of the company's PCIe-FRM24_C. It is an image acquisition
device that applies GEN2 PCI Express, which is twice as fast as the existing PCI Express, and supports
cameras compatible with Full configuration Camera Link. PCIe-FRM24_C acquires images in real time
and transfers them directly to system memory. The easy installation method and fast image transfer
make it a suitable device to meet the needs of the industry with low cost and high efficiency.
The sample program provided by the DQ system is provided in the form of a source so that the API
provided to use the board can be tested briefly, so the user can modify it and use it. Refer to Chapter
5 Sample Program for detailed explanation.
The MDR 26-pin connector can be connected to a Camera Link compatible camera, and the Mini-
Circular connector can supply the camera's power (12V). In addition, it has the function of external
control by providing 8 Digital Inputs and 8 Digital Outputs. Refer to 3-3 Connector Pin-Out for
detailed explanation.
This is a board that transmits the captured image frame to the PC through the PCI Express 1x
interface method in conjunction with the standard Camera-link camera. The operation of the board is
controlled by the program API, and the figure below shows the interlocking operation of the board.

In [Figure 1-1], PCIe-FRM24_C is installed in the PCI Express slot in the PC and receives from the
camera through the image frame through the Camera-Link standard interface. It is responsible for
transmitting the received data to the application program through the PCI Express GEN2 4x interface.
