1Introduction
1.1Product Description
The JAI, Inc. TM-6760 series are VGA format, high-speed monochrome progressive scan CCD cameras.* The progressive interline-type CCD permits full vertical and horizontal resolution of very high speed shutter images and applications. The electronic shutter, which has speeds to 1/32,000 sec., can be reset asynchronously by external pulse control. Three frame rates are available: 30, 60, and 120 fps. On-chip micro lenses provide increased sensitivity.
The TM-6760 has a full dynamic range control function, which can be set at externally selectable look- up-table (LUT) knee slopes to convert 10-bit input to 8-bit output, thereby optimizing the CCD’s full dynamic range in the normal output signal range. The camera has an 8-bit, RS-644 digital signal output for interfacing with external image-processing systems. All the key functions are externally controlled via RS-232C. The TM-6760CL model has a Camera Link output and its key functions are externally controlled via differential serial communication of Camera Link.
Applications for the TM-6760 include machine vision, medical imaging, intelligent transportation systems, high-definition graphics, on-line inspection, gauging, character reading, archiving, and high- security surveillance.
