FireBird I/O Adapter Type 25D-B

The FireBird I/O Adapter Type 25D-B allows end bracket access to a subset of the I/O on a FireBird frame grabber board. This 50 to 25-way adapter comes with a 24cm (9.45in) ribbon cable and connects to 4x opto-isolated outputs, 2x opto-isolated inputs and 4x RS-422 outputs. For more information consult the mechanical overview plus pin-out available under downloads.
On a FireBird frame grabber board I/O signals are provided via a 50-way header on the PCB. Some FireBird frame grabbers already offer access to I/O on the end bracket of the frame grabber board.

| Model Name | FireBird Camera Link 80-bit (Deca) |
|---|---|
| PN | CRD-FBD-1XCLD-2PE4 |
| Camera Link Interface | FireBird is fitted with 26‑way Camera Link Mini connectors (SDR/HDR) and screwlocks as specified in the Camera Link v2.1 specification. LEDs by each connector show the link status. The interface supports the following configurations: Single Base. Dual Base. Single Medium. Single Full. Single 80-bit (Deca). |
| Camera Clock | FireBird supports effective clock rates from DC to the Camera Link maximum of 85 MHz, using the Camera Link Strobe (STB) and Data Valid (DVAL) signals. |
| PoCL | FireBird supports Power over Camera Link (PoCL) functionality and is able to provide power to PoCL enabled cameras via the Camera Link data cable, therefore removing the need for a separate power supply. In addition to this the FireBird implements SafePower, an intelligent sense mechanism which detects the presence of a PoCL camera before applying power to it. This safety mechanism ensures that power is not applied to conventional non-PoCL cameras. FireBird can supply up to 4W at a nominal 12V to a Base mode PoCL camera, or 8W to Medium/Full/80-bit cameras, as required by the Camera Link specification. Both Camera Link connectors support PoCL, which with SafePower allows the use of any combination of PoCL and conventional cameras. |
| Buffer Memory | 320 MBytes of DDR3 memory is fitted for buffering between the Camera Link interface and the PCI Express bus. |
| PCI Express | 4-lane Gen2 interface typically providing 1.7 Gbytes/sec transfer from FireBird to the PC, subject to PC performance. |
| I/O | The following I/O lines are provided for triggers, shaft encoders, exposure control and general I/O: 4 opto-isolated inputs. 4 opto-isolated outputs. 4 TTL inputs, 5V tolerant. 4 TTL I/O, 5V logic. 4 RS-422 inputs. 4 RS-422 outputs. All these I/O signals are provided on a 50-way header on the FireBird board. A 15-way D-Type connector is located on the front panel and allows access to a subset of the above I/O: 2 opto-isolated inputs. 3 TTL I/O, 5V logic. 2 RS-422 inputs. 1 RS-422 output. |
| Fan Controller | The fan speed is linked to the temperature of the FPGA die for optimum cooling and noise level. |
| PCI Express Interface | PCI Express bus four lane Gen2 interface to Specification Revision 3.1, with a max payload size of 512 bytes. FireBird Camera Link 80-bit supports both Short (32-bit) and Long (64-bit) Address packets. It also generates Posted Writes for image data, thus achieving transfer rates in excess of 1.7 GBytes/sec, subject to host performance. The board requires 16 MBytes of address space |
| Camera Link | FireBird Camera Link 80-bit conforms to v2.1 of the Camera Link specification |
| Approvals | EU CE-mark for compliance with EMC EN 55022:2010 (class A) and EN 55024:2010 in accordance with EU directive 2014/30/EU. RoHS compliance to RoHS3 directive 2015/863/EU. USA EMC FCC Class A. The printed circuit board is manufactured by UL recognized manufacturers and has a flammability rating of 94V-0 |
| Dimensions | PCB: 168mm by 111mm Overall: 175mm by 111mm |
| Weight | 145g |
| Power Consumption (typical): | +3.3V 200mA +12V 400mA (Measured during acquisition from a single 80-bit camera running at 85MHz) |
| Storage Temperature | -15°C to +85°C |
| Operating Temperature | 0°C to +60°C (ambient environment) |
| Relative Humidity | 10% to 90% non-condensing (operating and storage) |
