ams Dragster Line Scan

The evaluation system features a highly configurable hardware which enables an easy setup of ams Sensors Belgium´s Dragster linescan family for a quick sensor evaluation. Image data is transferred to a frame grabber over high speed camera link. Any grabber that supports at least a camera link base configuration can directly acquire data from any Dragster version. The system controls the sensor operation using an FPGA to define the state machine timings, it acquires data synchronously and multiplexes that data to one Camera-Link base interface. Over an RS232 serial interface the user can have access to the state machine configuration and all sensor registers. It is possible to read back those sensor registers.
