phyCAM®-M-mini
VM-117
Extremely small board-level camera with MIPI CSI-2 interface
- Only 18 mm x 26 mm size
- Monochrome or color sensor AR0521
- Suitable for industrial use for professional series use
- -25 ° C to + 85 ° C
- MIPI CSI-2 standard
- EMV-optimized phyCAM-M interface
- Exchangeable, long-term available camera modules
The solution for compact designs
With a size of just 18 mm x 26 mm, the mini version of the VM-017 can be used wherever space is limited. The phyCAM-M connector enables direct interchangeability with VM-017-M and other PHYTEC board-level cameras with MIPI CSI-2 interface.
Precise centering holes simplify the adjustment of the camera module during assembly. The VM-117 is optionally available with a high-quality M12 lens holder, which also ensures optimized heat dissipation. Complete service: Let us offer you the right lens with assembly service at the same time.
Outstanding image quality
The AR0521 sensor from OnSemiconductor is characterized by its high low-light performance and backside illumination technology. The 5 megapixel camera supports various sub-resolutions such as Full HD, HD and VGA directly in the sensor through scaling and cropping.
The camera module is available with a monochrome or color sensor. The wide temperature range and long-term availability enable the design of professional embedded vision solutions.
The phyCAM-M interface transmits the MIPI CSI-2 data in the highest signal quality. phyCAM-M is EMC-optimized and offers additional functions such as trigger and strobe in the same cable.
