Point Grey Intros World’s Smallest GigE POE Camera
Richmond, BC, Canada — Point Grey, a manufac- turer of high-performance digital cameras has introduced the Blackfly camera. The first model (BLFY-PGE-13E4) features a
1.3 MP, 60 fps, CMOS global shutter sensor, is available in both monochrome and color, has less than 2 W power consumption, and is the world’s smallest and lightest GigE POE camera package. Future Blackfly models include 0.5 and 0.9 MP CCD resolutions with excellent quantum efficiency and wide dynamic range. According to the manufacturer, by combining
the best sensor technology, interface implementa- tion and low power design with an unbeatable price point, the Blackfly camera is the perfect choice for traditional machine vision and out- door imaging applications. The BFLY-PGE-13E4 model
uses the EV76C560 CMOS sensor from e2v which uses a global shut- ter readout architecture. Global shutter is critical to prevent geo- metric distortion when capturing images of fast moving objects. The CMOS pixel design on the other

Comparators Milpitas, CA — Touchstone Semicon - ductor has introduced 13 analog com- parators that, according to the manu- facturer, are lower cost, but identical electrically and in form-factor to their Maxim equivalents. Eleven of the 13 analog comparators feature an inte- grated 1.182V voltage reference with either ±1% (TSM92x/ TSM97x) or ±2% (TSM93x/TSM98x) initial accuracy. Also, all 13 analog comparators are offered in both commercial and indus- trial temperature ranges.

hand addresses blooming and smearing artifacts caused by bright sources or reflections in the cam-
era’s field of view. The Blackfly BFLY-PGE-13E4 model satis-
fies industry demand for global shutter CMOS ideal for cost sensitive applications in automation, 3D imaging or license plate recognition. Point Grey’s Blackfly camera measures 29 x
29 x 30 mm and provides a unique set of features including power over Ethernet, temperature and status monitoring, in-field updatable firmware, color interpolation, look up table, gamma correc-
tion, and pixel binning functionality. Contact: Point Grey Research Inc., 12051

Low-cost comparators. Ideal for 3V or 5V single-supply
applications, the comparators can operate from a single +2.5V to +11V supply or a ±1.25V to ±5V dual supply. Other common features include: a) an input voltage range from the negative supply rail to within 1.3V of the posi- tive supply and b) 4- s propagation delay. Single and dual comparators in these series also offer the board-level design engineer the ability to use two resistors to add hysteresis without feedback and without having to navi- gate complicated equations. All Touchstone semiconductor
integrated circuits (ICs) are available from Digi-Key, Touch stone’s author- ized distributor. The new models are
available now. Contact: Touchstone Semicon -
