13 Oct 2013 The Grablink Full XR, Grablink Full, Grablink DualBase and Grablink Base are state-of-the-art Camera Link frame grabbers representing a complete and competitive offer for machine vision systems. These new Grablink boards are particularly well-balanced in term of features offering on-board processing, such as LUTs and a Bayer CFA decoder. Moreover, the innovative ECCO feature allows the Grablink boards to operate beyond the Camera Link specifications in term of cable length or in term of speed. In addition these frame grabbers feature a new rich set of I/O lines particularly compatible with a wide range of sensors and encoders.
Well-Balanced and Competitive Range of Cutting-Edge Camera Link© 2.0 Frame Grabbers:
- 80-bit, Full, Medium, Base and Lite Camera Link configuration cameras
supported
- Monochrome, Bayer CFA, and color RGB progressive-scan cameras supported
- Full pixel clock range: from 20 MHz up to 85 MHz
- Serial control of Camera Link cameras: the application software can use the Camera Link API functions to control the camera. Alternatively, the serial line can be configured as an additional PC COM port ensuring interoperability with Mini Camera Link© SDR connectors with camera activity LED indicators
- Compliant with PoCL SafePower
- Compatible with PoCL Lite cameras to interface the smallest and lightest Camera Link cameras on the market
ECCO and ECCO+: Extended Camera Link Cable Operation

On-Board Pre-Processing
- 3 Look-up table (LUT) operators
- Bayer CFA decoder computes the R, G and B components of the image
- Pixel formatting in various formats: monochrome, Bayer CFA, RGB packed and RGB planar formats
- High-performance DMA transfers into user allocated memory with 64-bit addressing capability with image cropping capability
Digital I/O Lines Compatible with a Wide Range of Sensors and Encoders. They form a rich set of I/O lines with, per camera:
- 4 isolated current-sense inputs for a wide voltage input range up to 30V
- 4 isolated contact outputs
- 2 high-speed differential inputs
Moreover, +5V and +12V power outputs with electronic fuse protection are provided. The Grablink Full, DualBase and Base I/O lines can be used as general-purpose I/O lines. They also have specific usages as trigger, strobe or quadrature encoder input lines.
Form factor:
- PCI Express
