Contrary to high resolution CCD-sensors, modern CMOS-sensors offer high resolution and extremely high data rates. Because window size, position (ROI), and clock frequency is randomly programmable, resolution and frame rate of MC1310/11 can be easily adapted to any specific requirements. Using 2x10-Bit data output the full dynamic range of the sensor is available on the output. If less bandwidth and more speed is desired, any 8-Bits out of the 10-Bits of the sensor can be selected and output as 2x8-Bit, 8x8-Bit as "Full" Camera Link(R) output format or 10x8bit as "Extended Full" Camera Link(R). Horizontal and Vertical Pixelbinning With high frame rates the exposure time is short. For more sensitivity the level of two adjacent or pixel in one row or one column or both can be summed. Easy configuration MC1310/11 configuration is done via the Camera Link(R) interface. Eight sets of camera configuration schemes can be stored in non-volatile memory of the cameras microcontroller. Even the FPGA configuration file can be downloaded for very special customer needs e.g. image preprocessing in MC1310/11 hardware. Window size and position (ROI) on the sensor plus clock speed are programmable. With a pixel clock of 33 MHz on the "Base" Camera Link(R) connector and a window size of 100 x 100 pixel a frame rate of more than 5.000 fps can be achieved. Maximum video data rate at the 64-Bit "Full" Camera Link(R) connector is 660 MB/s. "Freeze Frame" full frame shutter ImageBLITZ image trigger ImageBLITZ integrates the function of an optical sensor or any other external actuator inside MC1310/11 hardware without any support of an image processing system. The hardware inside the camera controls with very high repetition rate the intensity along an arbitrary selectable piece of one of the 1024 rows of the sensor. If along that piece of the selected row a selectable number of grey values are beyond or below a selectable threshold, one complete image is automatically exposed and output. This is the advantage: no mounting and adjustment of an optical sensor and each object is captured at the exact same position of the image. The MC1310/11 has a "Freeze Frame" shutter. This shutter "freezes" and stores the complete full frame at the end of the Camera configuration tool exposure time while exposing the next image. The MC1310/11 is delivered with a configuration program for Windows(R) operating systems. The clearly defined control surface In this way the full frame shutter makes the sharply defined allows to work with it intuitively. All parameters of the camera, e.g. exposure of very fast, dynamic processes possible. MC1310/11 image size and position, speed, shutter, exposure time may be set can expose images synchronously or asynchronously. In directly or via sliders. The resulting commands are transmitted by synchronous (free run) mode exposure time equals frame time the serial interface of Camera Link(R). The selected settings may be or, for shorter exposure times, the electronic shutter can be stored in the camera or in a separate file. Also integrated is a activated with a minimal shutter time of 4s.
