Introduction

-Progressive scan, which eliminates interlace deterioration of the image while offering an easy-to-use computer interface.

-High sensitivity and low noise at fast scanning. Can drive faster than 25 MHz pixel clock rate. Excellent S/N ratio (>45 dB, 8-bit typical). Built-in micro lens.

-Partial scan capability, which allows 100 and 200 lines of partial scan up to 300Hz scan- ning.

•Asynchronous reset

The TM-6710 captures an image using asynchronous reset. This feature is especially important for applications requiring the capture of images of moving objects at the precise location in the field of view, such as a belt conveyer, fast event observation and still picture capture.

An asynchronously resettable frame grabber is required to capture the async reset images.

•Digital output

The TM-6710 has a pair of 8-bit A/D converters, and a line buffer that generates 16-bit, 25MHz dual channel digital output. The digital output is standard RS-644 format with LDV, FDV and clock output for standard frame grabbers or Camera Link. The Camera Link model is called the TM- 6710CL.

•RS-232C (or RS-485) control

External computer control allows the operator to remotely adjust the following functions: clock speed, shutter, gain, A/D reference and scan format. Camera Link controls the same functions via a Camera Link serial communication.

•VGA display output

Because progressive scan cameras are not in TV format, the display of the video signal can only be achieved by using a frame grabber and computer. The VGA output of the TM-6710 scans the FIFO memory read out at 120Hz at 50.98 MHz pixel clock (or 60 Hz) non-interlace (multiplexed output).

•Miniaturized, lightweight and rugged

All PULNiX cameras are built with the same design principles: Solid state technology; miniaturization; application-specific features such as custom design, remote imagers, special functions for various application needs; and design robust enough even for military applications.

•Warranty

1.3Applications

Designed for speed and functional versatility, the TM-6710 is ideal for applications such as high speed image capturing, machine vision, computer graphics, gauging, avionics, microscopy, character and fine pattern recognition, document reading and high-end surveillance.
