Video data input

The video and the synchronization signals, up to 28 bits (24 bits of video data and 4 bits of syncs), are transmitted as serialized data from the camera to the frame grabber over four LVDS pairs, along with a clock on a fifth LVDS pair.

Communication

Two LVDS pairs are used to transmit or receive asynchronous serial communication between the camera and the frame grabber. These signals are handled by the Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART).

UART

Matrox Meteor-II /Camera Link features a Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) that provides a serial interface. For example, this allows you to remotely control a camera or a motion control unit, or to communicate with a program logic controller (PLC). The UART is programmed using the MIL-Lite function, MdigControl() with the M_UART... control types.

Lookup tables

The Matrox Meteor-II /Camera Link board has four 8K x 8-bit programmable lookup tables. The LUTs on Matrox Meteor-II /Camera Link can be operated as four 8-bit lookup tables, two 10-bit lookup tables, or two 12-bit lookup tables.

PSG

The Programmable Synchronization Generator (PSG) is responsible for managing all video timing and synchronization signals.

Control signals

The following is a short description of the control signals featured on the board. Most signals are in LVDS format. It is indicated when a signal is in a format other than LVDS, such as TTL.
