Image Sensor (Standard) I.Image Sensor The XCG-U100CR and the XCG-5005CR incorporates highly renowned and widely adopted Sony’s “Super HAD CCD” sensor and achieves high frame rate at high resolution(XCG-U100CR : 2Mega pixels, XCG- 5005CR : pixels) without decreasing the picture quality. By activating the sensor in high frame rate, the influence of smear is reduced and it is helpful for outdoor application.

High Speed Acquisition (Partial Scan) A customer can minimize image processing time by selecting needed frame rate and angle of view without decreasing the resolution. Partial scan function is useful in reducing data amount of effective image and increasing frame rate in all angle of view by scanning the only area that a customer needs. Note: 1.Frame rate is increased only by vertical partial scan. 2.Since shutter speed setting has priority over the partial scan, shutter speed is not changed even if the partial scanning function is set. And also when the shutter speed is too long, the frame rate might not go up even if the smaller area is selected.

High Speed Acquisition (Partial Scan) Partial scan function for the GigE Vision camera the XCG and the is to partly clip specified position of angle and fixes number of pixels and lines by setting four parameters (Offset X/Y and Width/Height). Four parameters Example XCG-U100CRXCG-5005/ECR Width (pixels) 64 to 1,600, 8-pixel step 64 to 2,448, 8-pixel step Height (lines) 120 to 1,200, 4-line step 120 to 2,048, 4-line step XCG-H280 wo/Binningw/Binning Width (pixels²) 640 to 1,920, 8-pixel step 320 to 960, 4-pixel step Height (lines) 480 to 1,440, 2-line step 240 to 720, 1-line step Offset X 0 to 1,280, 2-pixel step 0 to 640, 1-pixel step Offset Y 0 to 720, 2-pixel step 0 to 480, 1-pixel step Parameter: “Width” Parameter: “Height” Parameter: “Offset X” Parameter: “Offset Y”

Binning Combines 2/4 pixels together with the following benefits Sensitivity increase Readout noise reduction Data reduction with same field of view as full resolution image Frame rate increase with vertical binning Ex : XCG-H280

Gain Control Analog gain The XCG cameras provides both manual and automatic gain control. In case of AGC(Auto Gain Control), user can set user- specified detection frame and average sensitivity. Detection frame : is defined by offset X/Y and Width/Height(Relative to 100% width and height of the output frame). Average sensitivity : is selectable from 0 to

Gain Control Digital Gain The XCG camera provides a digital gain function and the value is variable from 1x to 2x( x step). This digital gain is useful to increase the sensitivity without increasing noise which is not visible when analog gain is set Analog gain : 0dB Digital gain : 1x... Analog gain : +18dB Digital gain : 1x

Gain Control Pixel Gain The XCG-U100CR and the XCG-5005CR provides a pixel gain function which is possible to change each R/G/B pixel gain independently and manually. The setting range is from 1x to 16x in x step. Note: The setting range of the XCG-U100CR(only) is different between the 1 st lot 40units and from the 2 nd lot. XCG-U100CR 1 st lot S/N : ~ nd lot ~ S/N : ~ Setting range of Pixel Gain x ~ x, step (1000 ~ 16000) 1x ~ 16, step (1024 ~ 16383)

Sensitivity Control HW – XCG-H280 Wavelength ： 380nm ～ 760nm “Visible area ” Wavelength ：～ 380nm UV: Ultra Violet ⇒ Surface check Wavelength ：～ 380nm UV: Ultra Violet ⇒ Surface check Wavelength ： 760nm ～ IR ： Infrared ⇒ Internal check Wavelength ： 760nm ～ IR ： Infrared ⇒ Internal check

Sensitivity Control HW XCG-H280 CCD substrate bias voltage adjustment  By adjusting the substrate bias, the saturation signal charge can be increased or decreased  Increasing the saturation signal charge improves the sensitivity  Decreasing the saturation signal charge reduced the smearing  Easy hardware modification required Sensitivity improvement Smear reduction Smear

White Balance (CR) The XCG color models provide One-push White Balance which is possible to adjust white balance by controlling R gain and B gain corresponding to the G gain for a user-specified detection frame ONCE upon executing the command. The detection frame is defined by offset X/Y and Width/Height(Relative to 100% width and height of the output frame) as well as analog gain setting.

Synchronization ( External Trigger Input) i.Hardware/Software Trigger The cameras can select hardware trigger input from 12pin connector and software trigger that generates drive signal inside the camera by command via Ethernet. Hardware trigger has a benefit in case user needs more accurate acquisition and Software trigger is useful to make the system simple (Software trigger starts after receiving command from host computer). ii.Trigger Polarity It is possible to input both high-active and low-active polarity trigger to the camera according to a customer’s system. iii.Trigger inhibit The cameras can be set not to recognize trigger input by internal camera setting(which means trigger inhibition can be set). This enables arbitrary the camera to recognize only a needed trigger signal, and acquire image when customers use system in which common trigger signal line is connected to multiple units of cameras. Also the cameras can be protected from noise which added to trigger signal line by using Trigger Inhibit function.

Synchronization (External Trigger Input) iv.Trigger Overlap This trigger overlap function enables the the cameras to input trigger during previous picture is read out from the sensor on trigger mode in order to accept trigger at the fastest possible timing. Note: When trigger is overlapped, exposure start to the trigger is fine adjusted and jitter occurs. Please refer to the “Trigger Latency”, Overlap: Yes.

SDRAM Data Flow for Packet Resending The XCG Series have SDRAM of128Mbit (16MByte) to play a role of FIFO. Resend request from host PC when packet lost can be answered while data exists in this SDRAM. The right table shows amount of data that each camera can store in SDRAM (as a reference value).
