LVDS
Connection
Although most new high
speed digital cameras use the new CameraLink™
interface there are still many cameras that use
LVDS. With LVDS there is no set standard, so every
camera and framegrabber can have different connectors
which necessitates a custom cable every time! To
make things worse, with LVDS digital cables, the
vast quantity of wires needed mean that often the
connectors are very small and difficult to solder.
For instance a simple 8 bit area scan camera may
have 22 signal wires plus shielding and ground,
and an advanced camera such as the CT-F3 from DALSA
has 136 wires.
Firstsight Vision offer
cable solutions for the vast majority of our Digital
camera/framegrabber combinations which are fully
tested and built using the correct tooling to ensure
high quality interconnects. In addition, the cables
can optionally be upgraded to full hi-flex robotic
grade cable. Some of the more common combinations
and lengths are held in stock while others can usually
be provided in 2 to 4 weeks.
