Product Description
This camera features an outstanding sensitivity and dynamic range even at maximal
speeds. The ROI allows to increase the frame rate (for instance, 157 fps in VGA
format 2M60). ATMOSTM cameras are based on a rolling shutter CMOS sensor.
The configuration interface provides access to advanced functions (contrast expan-
sion, image calibration, LUT). The versatile and compact mechanical housing enables
you to implement various configurations.
These features combined with a compelling price, make ATMOS
an attractive alterna-
tive for demanding users of megapixel cameras.
Applications
High-speed, dynamic range performance and reliability of this camera make it suitable
for machine vision, especially:
Material Inspection (e.g. glass, IC, PCB)

Standard Conformity
The cameras have been tested in the following conditions:
Camera with complete Atmel housing
Shielded power supply cable
Camera Link data transfer cable ref. 14B26-SZLB-500-OLC (3MTM)
Linear AC-DC power supply
Atmel recommends using the same configuration to ensure compliance with the following
standards.
2.1
CE Conformity
The ATMOS cameras comply with the European directive 89/336/CEE (EN55022 A/CISPR22 A,
EN55024, EN61000-6-2).
2.2
FCC conformity
ATMOS Cameras comply with Part 15 of FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
1.
This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2.
This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protec-
tion against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful
interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own
expense.
Warning: Changes or modifications to this unit not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user's authority to operate this equipment.

Camera Description
Figure 3-1.
Camera Synoptic
The camera is based on a single tap CMOS sensor which delivers a 12-bit digital video signal at
its output. An FPGA has been implemented for image processing (FPN column correction, con-
version LUT, contrast expansion). The camera is powered by a single DC power supply from
12V to 24V. The functional interface (data and control) is provided with the Camera Link inter-
face. The camera uses the base configuration of the Camera Link standard.
Note:
DVAL permanently tied to 1 (high) level.
Data is delivered on two channels. The data format configuration might be in 12-bit, 10-bit, or 8-
bit. It is possible to use external triggers with the camera (CC1 signal or TTL_IO trigger input) in
different trigger modes see
"Synchronization Modes" on page 6
The camera configuration and
settings are done via the Camera Link serial communication. This interface is used for:
Gain and offset setting
Data output format
Synchronization modes: free-run or external trigger modes
Shutter time
Test pattern generation
Upload and download of correction data (FPN column correction, LUT)
