4,096 or 2,048 Pixels, 80kHz Scan rate, Camera Link compliant
Digital line scan camera
TL-4096NCL(-M42D)/TL-2048NCL(-M42D)/TL-2048NCLC

Overview
- Industrial Digital Line Scanner employing CMOS image sensor with linearly arranged 4,096 (TL-4096NCL) or 2,048 photodiodes.
- High Sensitivity by Large-sized Pixel of 7µm × 7µm.
- High speed CMOS Line Scan Camera featuring 80kHz scan rate at 400MHz(TL-4096NCL) or 200MHz(TL-2048NCL) data rate.
- Horizontal and vertical binning mode provides about 4 times higher sensitivity compared with standard scanning mode.
- Each Camera Link connection format of Full (TL-4096NCL only), Medium and Base configuration and clock speed (50MHz/85Mhz) are selectable. That achieves flexibility of image data output for various applications.
Features
- Setup parameters can be controlled by the communication command (RS232C) from the capture board.
- Global shutter function, FFC function, and anti-blooming function are equipped.
- DC 12V single power operation
- Built-in dark current compensation circuit provides stable output under the change in the ambient air temperature.
- Very compact and lightweight by the unique circuit and mechanism design
- Versatile F-mount or C-mount (TL-2048NCLC only) is employed.
Applications
- Image processing device for image inspection
- Inspection equipment for liquid crystal panel
- Measuring equipment such as appearance inspection device or dimensional measurement device
- Surface inspection device for sheet-like object
- High-resolution pattern inspection instrument
- Data entry device for image processing unit employing computer
