USB3.0 5MP CMOS Cameras

Product information "USB3.0 5MP CMOS Cameras"

5 MP; Pixel Size 2.2x2.2 µm; Sensor Size 1/2.5” Diagonal; Colour or B/W; 14-350 fps; Resolution 8, 12, 24 bit; USB 3.0; Progressive Scan; Dynamic Range 70 dB; Board-level or Enclosed

Mightex’s ultrafast USB 3.0, 5 MP, CMOS cameras are designed for applications that require high-speed and/or multiple cameras. These cameras are equipped with a super-speed USB 3.0 interface that can deliver a transfer rate of up to 400 Mbytes per second, which is 10 times the USB 2.0 speed, 3.5 times GigE speed and 6 times Firewire-800 speed.

With a fast and high-definition Aptina 5 Megapixel CMOS image sensor that can offer up to 14 fps in full resolution and up to 350 fps using ROI mode, Mightex USB 3.0 cameras are suited for industrial applications that require a great amount of data to be processed and transferred from the camera to the PC.

These ultra-compact cameras have external trigger-in, strobe-out, and a powerful engine that supports multiple camera operations. In addition to all these outstanding features, a user-friendly GUI based application software and an SDK are provided for custom software development.

USB3.0 5MP CMOS cameras are available as colour (SMN-C050-U/SME-C050-U) or B/W (SMN-B050-U/SME-B050-U) versions and can be ordered as “naked” board-level device (SMN) or pre-mounted in an enclosure (SME).

Note: Board-level cameras are designed for OEM applications, when a system-level enclosure is usually provided. In order to avoid electro-static discharge (ESD) related damages, workforce handling a board-level camera should be properly grounded. ESD related damages are considered as mishandling and are not covered by product warranty. For lab use, it is strongly recommended to choose an enclosed camera instead of a board-level one.
