Compact USB2.0 Color 8/12bit 1.3MP 1/3″ CCD Camera with Frame Buffers Description：

Datasheet

Mightex USB2.0 CCD cameras with frame buffers are optimized for machine-vision applications, and they can be also used for a wide variety of applications (such as industrial inspections, digital microscopy and medical imaging) which require good quality cameras that are easy to use and cost-effective. These cameras have built-in frame buffers, external trigger-in, strobe-out, and a powerful camera engine that supports multiple cameras. Frame rate can be as high as 20 fps in full resolution and up to 84 fps using ROI mode. A user-friendly GUI based application software and an SDK are provided for custom software development. In addition, a DirectShow driver and a TWAIN driver are available to easily link the cameras with users’ applications. A USB command set protocol and a Linux driver are also provided for non-Windows based applications.

*. The actual achievable frame rate depends on exposure time, as well as resources available from the PC system.
** In the sub-resolution mode, the color information is ignored, and hence the images become monochromic.
