CAMELIA M1 8M LVDS and CameraLink

Camera
5319C–IMAGE–02/04
The Camelia camera is powered by a single 24V power supply. It is configurable via the
computer’s serial port (by using either CommCam software or a standard RS-232 com-
municator such as TTY or Hyperterminal) for LSD cameras. The Camelia is also
configurable via the serial communication of CameraLink
™
for CameraLink cameras. It
also sends digital video data.
As the Camelia's CCD is a full-frame sensor, the user must use either pulsed lighting or
a chopper/shutter in front of the camera to obtain only incident lighting on the CCD dur-
ing the integration time. The user must design an electro-optical interface to drive the
camera, shutter/chopper or lighting by using the SHUTTER signal emitted by the cam-
era. If required, the system can send an external trigger or external ITC (integration time
control signal) to the camera.
The BG38 filter is essential to obtain correct white balance on color cameras and for use
with standard optics (for achromaticity purposes).
The following elements are not provided by Atmel:
