The Imaging Source DFM 36SR2020-ML Color MIPI CSI-2 Board Camera

Highlights

The Imaging Source DFM 36SR2020-ML Color MIPI CSI-2 Board Camera is a compact 19.7 MP embedded vision camera built around the onsemi AR2020 CMOS sensor. It captures 5,120 × 3,840 color images at up to 30 fps with 1.4 µm pixels and a rolling shutter.

Designed for compact embedded and OEM vision systems, the camera uses a 22-pin MIPI CSI-2 FFC interface compatible with NVIDIA Orin, NXP i.MX 8M Plus and Raspberry Pi 5 platforms. Its 30 × 30 × 6 mm board-level design, 4 g mass, trigger input and optional M12x0.5 lens mount support integration into high-resolution color embedded imaging systems.
