Atmel Corporation

Atmel Achieves Higher Resolutions With Its 2.5M Pixel CMOS Industrial Camera

02.11.2005 – 14:05

Grenoble, France, November 2 (ots/PRNewswire)

- Available Today With Associated Software for Easy Configuration
Atmel(R) Corporation (Nasdaq: ATML) announced today the
introduction of a new member of the ATMOS(TM) area scan CMOS camera
family dedicated to industrial machine-vision applications. The
additional members ATMOS 2M30 and ATMOS 2M60 are fast CMOS area scan
cameras able to work in 8, 10 or 12 bits that offers an excellent
dynamic range. Specific CommCam(TM) software, also developed by
Atmel, renders camera configuration easy.
ATMOS 2M30 and 2M60 are composed of a 2.5 million pixels CMOS
sensor featuring high sensitivity and high quality even at maximal
speed. The region of interest (R.O.I.) allows the end-user to
implement infinite resolutions and to increase frame rate such as: 48
fps full resolution at 2.5M pixels, 60 fps at 2M pixels and 160 fps
in VGA format (640X480 pixels) for the 2M60 model (half-speed for the
2M30). Furthermore, the ATMOS 2M30 and ATMOS 2M60 cameras comprises
an electronic shutter and Camera Link(R) interface suitable for those
wanting to upgrade from analog to digital modes while offering cost
effective solutions.
The two ATMOS cameras are delivered in a 44 mm square section
design with a C-mount adapter, among the smallest in the market. The
performance, versatility and adaptability of the compact mechanical
body give OEM and integrators an optimum solution to space saving in
systems. It also allows an implementation into multiple
configurations. The camera can be uploaded remotely.
"With these new members, ATMOS(TM) camera family offers an
exciting alternative to CCD base cameras," said Christophe Robinet,
Camera Marketing Manager of Atmel's Professional Imaging. "These
cameras allow for customized solutions on request."
Firstly dedicated to machine-vision, ATMOS features various timing
modes: free-run, triggered mode, ITC with very fine setting of the
shutter signal (0 to 655 ms by steps of 10 us).
The dynamic range of this camera (63 dB) is equivalent to the one
typically achieved with CCD sensors. The benefit of the dynamic
range, with the offset and gain fine tuning, is detection of slight
differences of gray levels even in low contrast images. These
features are particularly suited for inspection (glass, flat panel
display, PCB), robot-guidance, metrology, as well as various
applications such as microscopy and surveillance applications.
ATMOS 2M30 and 2M60 provide an easy to use, user friendly Camera
Link configuration interface with advanced function features such as
contrast expansion, Fixed Pattern Noise correction (FPN), and Look Up
Table (LUT). ATMOS features five banks of settings: one for factory
settings (read only), three for user settings (write/read) and one
additional setting that can be locked by the system manufacturer once
the system is calibrated. With the CommCam software, the end-user
gains easy access to all of the cameras' features such as gain,
offset tuning and synchronization mode. The Commcam concept with its
plug-and-play system has contributed to the success of AViiVA(R)
linescan cameras. It enables automatic identification of the camera
range, faster programming, multilingual programming of settings, easy
saving process and uploading of firmware for upgrades and
customization.
The ATMOS 2M30 and 2M60 cameras are at sample stage now and will
enter their production phase in April 2006. Pricing starts at US$2500
and US$3000 respectively for a quantity of 100 pieces.
