The Imaging Source DFM 47GR0521-ML Color Board Camera

Highlights

The Imaging Source DFM 47GR0521-ML Color Board Camera is a compact 5 MP GigE board-level camera built around the onsemi AR0521 CMOS sensor. It captures 2,592 × 1,944 color images at up to 22 fps with 2.2 µm pixels and a rolling shutter.

Designed for OEM and space-constrained machine-vision integration, the camera combines an angled RJ45 GigE interface with an M12x0.5 lens mount in a compact 36 × 38 × 17 mm form factor. External triggering, two digital outputs, GigE Vision support, and IEEE 1588 PTP provide flexible integration into industrial imaging systems.

Features

• 5 MP resolution with a full image size of 2,592 × 1,944 pixels.
• Up to 22 fps at full resolution using the BayerGR8 output format.
• onsemi AR0521 sensor using CMOS imaging technology.
• Rolling-shutter operation supports high-resolution color image acquisition.
• 2.2 µm pixels on a 1/2.5-inch sensor with a 5.7 × 4.3 mm active area.
• Color image output with Bayer, YUV, RGB24 and monochrome output formats.
• GigE Vision interface using an angled RJ45 connector for flexible network integration.
• M12x0.5 lens mount supports compact optical integration in embedded and OEM systems.
• No IR-cut filter extends the color sensor’s response beyond a standard filtered color configuration.
• External trigger and digital outputs with one trigger input and two open-drain outputs.
• Automatic exposure, gain and white balance provide adaptable image control under changing illumination.
• Partial-scan imaging supports selection of a smaller sensor region for optimized image acquisition.
• 2× and 4× binning provide additional sensor readout options for resolution and sensitivity optimization.
• IEEE 1588 PTP and scheduled actions support synchronized, time-controlled image acquisition across compatible network devices.
