Sony, a renowned leader in digital camera technology, is
introducing six new models to its XCD Series: the
XCD-U100/U100CR, the XCD-SX90/SX90CR, and the
XCD-V60/V60CR. Featuring outstanding picture quality,
high-speed image capturing, and the digital 1394b interface,
this new XCD Series is perfect for high-quality industrial and
manufacturing solutions.
The XCD-U100/U100CR incorporates a 1/1.8-type IT CCD that
captures extremely, high-quality, detailed images with an ultrahigh
resolution of 1600 x 1200 (UXGA). The XCD-SX90/SX90CR
employs a Sony unique CCD that achieves a frame rate of up to
30 fps at 1280 x 960 (SXGA) resolution. The XCD-V60/V60CR
achieves up to 90 fps at VGA resolution, which is commonly
used in many machine-vision applications. With this wide
range of new solutions – each with feature-rich benefits – it’s
never been easier to select the right camera for your specific
machine vision applications.
The new XCD Series of cameras adopts the IEEE 1394b interface
that supports the IIDC protocol. By utilizing this interface, users
can transfer images to a host PC at speeds of up to 800 Mb/s.
Moreover, because multiple cameras can be connected in a daisychain
configuration, users can enjoy the benefits of simplified
operation in a multi-camera system. When these XCD cameras
are daisy-chained, Bus Synchronization and Broadcast Delivery
are available. With Bus Synchronization, users can capture
images from different angles simultaneously simply by sending
a single trigger from the host PC. Broadcast Delivery allows
users to capture images from multiple cameras using a software
trigger instead of a hardware trigger, which helps to minimize
the occurrence of false triggers. This function also enables
users to change the settings of multiple cameras simultaneously.
Their compact design and rugged body enables the XCD Series
to be integrated into a wide variety of industrial environments.
In addition, the XCD series incorporates other features such as
partial scanning, binning, and a hardware LUT (Look Up Table).
The new XCD Series of cameras is ideal for industrial machinevision
applications such as object recognition, inspection,
measurement, alignment, and more.
FEATURES
Excellent Picture Quality/
High Frame Rates
The XCD-U100/XCD-U100CR features a UXGA
CCD that provides the highest resolution out of
all the new XCD cameras. This particular
camera is ideal for applications that require the
capture of ultra-high image detail.
The XCD-SX90/XCD-SX90CR employs an
exclusive Sony CCD and achieves up to 30 fps
with SXGA image quality. For applications that
require high-speed image capture at up to
90 fps, the XCD-V60/XCD-V60CR is the answer.
IEEE 1394b Digital Interface
The new XCD Series employs the IEEE 1394b
interface which attains high data-transfer rates
of up to 800 Mb/s. Since the XCD Series is
backward compatible with IEEE 1394a, these
cameras can be easily integrated with legacy
1394a systems.
Daisy-chain Configuration
The new XCD cameras are equipped with two
IEEE 1394b ports allowing multiple cameras to
be daisy-chained and controlled from a single
PC. A daisy-chain configuration with a large
number of cameras*1 is made possible by their
EIAJ 12-pin connector, which allows external
power to be supplied to the cameras.
*1 Up to 62 cameras can be daisy chained.
