DCx Camera Functional Description and SDK Manual
Compact, fast and lightweight. The new DCC3260x and DCC3240x. The
29 x 29 x 29 mm small camera housing is not only ultra-compact, but due
to its magnesium casing and a total camera weight of 43 g, it is also ultra-
lightweight and robust. The powerful camera offers a bandwidth of 400
MByte/s via USB 3.0. Power is supplied via the USB bus, hence an extra
power cable is obsolete.
With its lockable Micro USB connector the camera is perfectly suited even
for rough environments. Offering trigger and flash as well as two GPIOs
(General Purpose I/O), which can also be changed into a serial interface
(RS232). Hence, peripheral devices can easily be triggered or controlled.
But also the camera’s inner values are outstanding: brightness corrections
are easily realized by a comfortable 12 bit lookup table and hardware
gamma. 12 bit color depth offers a by factor 16 increased level of detail
compared to the usual 8 bit. Hardware based data preprocessing saves
additional CPU resources.
USB 2.0 DCC1240x (CMOS) and DCC22xX (CCD) Cameras
The DCC1240X and DCC22xX series feature a robust metal housing
with a standard mini-B USB 2.0 connector. Connection is additionally
possible via a lockable micro D-sub connector which also carries the opto-
isolated I/O signals.
The USB 2.0 interface is meanwhile available in every standard PC and
notebook/laptop and provides a gross bandwidth of 60 MByte/s. The
camera is connected and powered through the USB port by just a single
cable.
USB2.0 DCC1545M and DCC1645C Cameras
The DCC1x45X series features extremely compact cameras with high-speed
CMOS sensors. The LE models are designed for professional use in non-
industrial applications. Through the use of the widespread USB 2.0
technology, the cameras can easily be interfaced with a vast variety of
systems. These cameras are available with a plastic housing with CS-
mount lens adapter.
