​Videology has released a new CCD based camera board with 960 horizontal pixels, model 2XK17X.  Already in full production, it is ready for application design-ins that require the benefits of a CCD and the long term 7+ year support that Videology is so well known for.

A CCD delivers better sensitivity, a standard global shutter frame output, lower latency, and lower noise, versus standard CMOS sensors.
Many applications still require CCD’s for a far longer term than Sony’s projected product lifespan.   This new addition to our most popular camera board form factor of 22x26 mm, uses a Sharp Color 960H ccd with 620TVL PAL / NTSC output

2XK17X Features:

• High 960H pixel resolution, a 30% increase over D1
• Dual 960H analog and digital BT656 output streams
• Low latency - less than 5ms, for time critical applications
• Flexible power range from 5 to 15 Volts

Compatibility and design-in ease is maintained with our current standard form factor camera families: 2XK14, 2XK15 and 2XK45

• same 1/4" CCD size
• same mounting hole locations and lens mounts
• same 4:3 aspect display ratio
• same I²C control software (as 2XK14 / 2XK15)

In addition to all the above key values we offer outstanding cost effectiveness and Crosstree Technology® (ability to interface to multiple standards via stackable boards).
