Camera Link Interface; Cv-M4 Block Diagram - JAI CV-M4+ Operation Manual

5.4.5. Camera Link interface

For Camera Link the digital output signals follow the Camera Link standardized multiplexed
signal output interface. The output driver is NS type DS90CR283, and the receiver is NS type
DS90CR284.
The data bits from the 10 bit digital video, FEN, LEN. EEN and DVAL are multiplexed into the
twisted pairs, which are a part of the Camera Link. Trigger signals and the serial camera control
is feed directly through its own pair.
For a detailed description of Camera Link specifications, please refer to the Camera Link
