The Imaging Source DMM 36CX297-ML Monochrome FPD-Link III Board Camera

Highlights

The Imaging Source DMM 36CX297-ML Monochrome FPD-Link III Board Camera is a compact 0.4 MP embedded vision camera built around the Sony IMX297 Pregius CMOS sensor. It captures 720 × 540 monochrome images at up to 120 fps with 6.9 µm pixels and a global shutter.

Designed for embedded vision systems requiring greater distance between the camera and processor, the DMM 36CX297-ML uses an FPD-Link III interface with a FAKRA connector and supports cable lengths of up to 15 m within the 36C platform. The compact 30 × 30 × 27.5 mm module also provides external trigger and configurable I/O functionality for synchronized imaging applications.
