1.4-megapixel 3CCD RGB Color Camera

The AT-140CL takes 3CCD color technology to the next level. A newly developed prism-block assembly supports three 1/2-inch CCDs to provide higher resolution and better light gathering ability than earlier 3CCD camera models.

The three ICX267AL CCDs deliver 1392 x 1040 pixels of resolution per channel, while JAI's patented manufacturing process ensures alignment precision to within one quarter pixel for the best image quality in the industry.

The AT 140CL operates at 25 frames per second at full resolution, with partial scan and binning modes available for even higher frame rates. A wide range of pre-set and programmable shutter and exposure modes are provided to support diverse application requirements.

Dual Camera Link interfaces let users choose between 8, 10, or 12-bit output per channel using a Camera Link base or medium configuration, as required. With full 36-bit RGB color output possible, no progressive scan 3CCD camera offers higher color fidelity.

With its high image quality and 78 mm length, the AT140CL camera is well suited for a wide range of inspection applications within the printing industry, electronics & semiconductor manufacturing as well as for biomedical screening/classification.
