USB2.0 Machine Vision CCD 8/12-Bit Line Camera with External Trigger (DISCONTINUED)

TCE-133A-U

(DISCONTINUED) Mightex’s TCE-133A-U line camera is a cost-effective high-performance machine vision monochrome line CCD camera, based on a single-line, 1024-pixel CCD sensor with USB2.0 (480 Mb/s) interface. CCD line cameras have several advantages over their area-array counterparts, including high optical linear resolution that allows system developers to use the cameras to capture two-dimensional (2-D) images by moving the object or the CCD perpendicularly to the scan line. With a scan rate of as high as 10,000 scans/second, the TCE-133A-U is a compact linear camera ideal for a variety of OEM applications in industry process control, optics, biology, spectroscopy and reflection imaging. Setting up the TCE-133A-U line camera is very easy, the user simply installs the latest version of the operating software onto any desktop or notebook PC and then connects the USB cable from the line camera to the PC. There is no need for installing a DAC card, or using an external power supply.

(Notice: The image sensor used in this product, FairChild CCD133A, is discontinued by the manufacturer. Therefore, it is not recommended to use the line camera for OEM applications.)

Frame Rate is dependent on exposure time. When exposure time is set to 0.1ms, the camera can
achieve 10000 scans/second in Continuous mode.
 This frame rate is guaranteed in 8bit mode, while in
12bit mode, the frame rate might depend on the available USB bandwidth.
