PCI And PCI Express Video Capture Boards

The DPict Imaging Aexeon-LT is a low-profile video acquisition board for standard definition analog cameras. Available in either PCI or PCI Express formats, AexeonLT incorporates a digital media processor and on-board frame buffer for reliable capture. The Aexeon LT supports both composite and S-Video camera inputs and digitizes in either square pixel or CCIR-601 formats.

Aexeon-LT can be ordered in either PCI or PCI Express system interfaces allowing for system compatibility well into the future. PCI Express is the highperformance, next-generation interconnect that increases bandwidth, scalability, and reliability. AexeonLT supports the low-profile PCI form factor standard for space-constrained system installations. Aexeon LT can be ordered with either a standard PCI bracket for full-height system installs or with a low-profile bracket.

Aexeon-LT's high speed bus-mastering capability with scatter gather support delivers real-time video data to system or display memory simultaneously, without intervention from the host CPU. Video data formatting and resolution is independent between streams, allowing for maximum bandwidth fl exibility. By incorporating an on-board video processor, AexeonLT enables maximum fl exibility in handling challenging application requirements. Equipped with a 32 MB SDRAM frame buffer, the video processor provides smooth scaling, pixel formatting, interrupt support, hardware overlay, and real-time video processing.

Aexeon LT provides high-quality 10-bit capture from up to 3 composite or 1 S-Video video sources in NTSC or PAL format. Video can be captured and stored in either square pixel or CCIR-601 resolutions, and can be scaled to any arbitrary size. Aexeon-LT has a single I/O trigger for camera triggering. The trigger can be programmed as either an input trigger or an output trigger.

dVeloper is a comprehensive software de vel op ers kit that supports all dPict Imaging products, allowing for easy porting to new hardware. dVeloper is royalty free and runs under Microsoft Windows XP, Vista, or 7 operating systems. Source code samples and complete documentation are included in Visual C, C#, and Visual Basic .NET to provide insight to various hard ware functions. Samples include video-in-a-window, overlay, video buffering, camera control, and more.
