05 Mar 2009 Multipix Imaging launch the new Basler A406k camera providing 209fps at the full resolution of 2320x1726 pixels. It is available in both monochrome and colour. Successfully used in automated optical inspection systems to verify the position and soldering quality of devices on populated, soldered PCBs. When the camera is used with the supplied AOI list editor, it is possible to change the size, position, and exposure time of a series of AOIs extremely quickly. This is a significant advantage because the Camera Link serial communications channel normally used to change camera parameters is limited to only 115k baud and would be too slow to make these rapid changes to the AOI. This is especially true given the high frame rate of the A406k. The camera comprises a CMOS sensor with a rolling shutter. With the help of a flash window providing an output signal when all of the lines in the sensor are ready for exposure, the global shutter is simulated.
