Overview

Overview

The XCD-SX910CR/SX910UV/SX910 with its 1/2- type PS IT CCD, and the XCD-X710CR/X710 with its 1/3-type PS IT CCD are high-resolution industrial-use digital video camera modules. Utilizing an IEEE 1394- 1995 digital interface, transfer rates as high as 400 Mbps are realized. In addition, the use of digital signals enables industrial-use image processing without “image deterioration,” an important plus in the industrial world. Moreover, the use of a square pixel CCD eliminates the need for aspect ration conversion during image processing.

Finally, a vibration resistance feature permits use of these units in all types of inspection and imaging devices.

What is the IEEE1394?

The IEEE1394 is the standard serial bus for sending and receiving digital data. It is prescribed as “IEEE* Std. 1394-1995.”

The most outstanding feature of this interface is that it realizes transfer speeds of up to 400 Mbps and can handle large image data size. The interface is also capable of “Isochronous transmission” which transmits data real-time, for up to 64 channels. Connectors can be inserted and disconnected while the unit is turned on, and no terminators and no ID settings such as those necessary for the SCSI interface are required.

Main Features

The XCD-SX910CR/SX910UV/SX910 video camera module utilizes a 1/2-type PS IT CCD, and the XCD-X710CR/X710 utilizes a 1/3-type PS IT CCD

RAW mode output using the RGB Bayer pattern (XCD-SX910CR/X710CR only)

High-speed digital interface IEEE1394

High-resolution

The XCD-SX910CR/SX910UV/SX910 adopts an SXGA-compatible 1.45 M-pixel CCD while the XCD- X710CR/X710 adopts an XGA-compatible 800 Kpixel CCD to produce high-picture quality images.

External trigger function

The external trigger shutter function allows the image exposure to be coordinated with external equipment and moving objects.

For exposure time, the unit is equipped with Trigger Mode 0, which indicates the length of the exposure using the shutter parameter, and Trigger Mode 1, which controls exposure time by the width of the trigger signal.

It is also able to utilize a software trigger initiated by a command from a program running on a host computer.
