STMicroelectronics CAM-5943 Promodules
STMicroelectronics CAM-5943 Promodules are a full range of sample camera modules made for seamless integration and evaluation of the VD5943 5-megapixel monochrome image sensor. These ready-to-use vision extensions integrate the VD5943 image sensor, lens, lens holder, and plug-and-play flex connection in a compact format down to 14.0mm square.
The CAM-5943 line leverages the full toolbox of on-chip features in the embedded VD5943 image sensor, including hybrid global/rolling shutter, on-chip HDR, multi-exposure, and more. Multiple GPIOs enable users to synchronize the modules with illumination and triggers. These promodules are perfectly suited for embedded low-power setups and feature two or four lanes of MIPI CSI-2 output and low operating power.
Multiple promodule references are available, featuring various lenses to best match the needs of every application in terms of mechanical constraints and optical setup. All camera modules use the same FPC-to-board pinout and connector. This plug-and-play architecture allows users to change the promodule instantly and reuse the same setup with different color options, lenses, and even different image sensors from the ST BrightSense portfolio.
