10. AD Conversion (ARTCAM-WOM series)
*AD conversion to 16 bit and then
output the upper 10 bit to digital gain
10.1. Standard functions (configurable in standard viewer/SDK)
・Digital gain
Global gain (digital gain) can be configured with the standard viewer software or SDK.
Setting range on standard viewer software: 0 –1023
Default value on standard viewer software: 512
Digital gain = gain value x 0.03125 –6.0 (dB)
Example 1: When default value is 512,
Analog gain = 512 x 0.03125 –6.0 ＝10(dB)
10.2. Optional functions (please contact us for further details.)
・Analog gain:
Can be set to 3dB, 0dB, 6dB, 12dB or 18dB
・Black level correction
By default, black level correction is set automatically, and the Pedestal level is set to 32 at 10bit.
(When output is at 8bit, the Pedestal level is approximately 32 / 4 = 8.)
The target value of Pedestal level (32) can also be modified.

・Each of the six GPIO pins is pulled up to 3.3V with 1kΩon the circuit board and is connected to the IO
pins on FPGA.
・When GPIO pins are used as output pins, the FPGA output is driven at high impedance and Low level.
(At the time of power-up: high impedance)
To control GPIO, please use the ArtCam_SetIOPort / GetIOPort functions in SDK.
To control GPIO output, please specify the corresponding OR calculated values of each bit as per the
table below to the second argument of the SetIOPort function.
IO pin
Bit
GPIO_0
0x01
GPIO_1
0x02
GPIO_2
0x04
GPIO_3
0x08
GPIO_4
0x10
GPIO_5
0x20
For example, to have GPIO_0, GPIO_1, GPIO_4 output High(Z) and GPIO_2, GPIO_3, GPIO_5 output
Low, please call this as follows:
ArtCam_SetIOPort(hACam, (0x01 | 0x02 | 0x10), 0, 0);
To read the GPIO pins, BYTE-type values can be gotten with the GetIOPort function.
For example, to get the status on GPIO_4 pin, please call the followings:
BYTE data = 0x00;
ArtCam_GetIOPort(hACam, &data, 0, 0);
BOOL gpio4 = (data & 0x10) ? TRUE : FALSE;
And the BOOL-type variable gpio4 of GPIO_4 pin is gotten
・Extensions
Monitoring the vertical synchronization signals, horizontal synchronization signals, strobe signals,
and trigger signals on the sensor are possible as extensions of the GPIO option. (Optional)

12. System Requirements
12.1.Recommended System Requirements
●Host Controller
This camera is applicable to USB 2.0.
●CPU
The driver of this camera is applicable to computer architecture “x86”or “amd64”.
The specification of CPU effects directly the imaging process speed, therefore it is highly
recommended to utilize a high-end CPU if possible.
●Memory
In the viewer software, there is a data buffer which can store 4 to 8 frames.
Therefore, it is necessary to keep spare space at least for 8 frames in the memory.
(For example, when using 1.3MP color camera, 1280 x 1024 x 3 x 8 [byte] = 30[MB] is
necessary.)
It is highly recommended to keep enough memory space especially when using high resolution
camera.
●OS
This camera is applicable only to the architecture of Windows NT (32bit/64bit).
Standard functions are confirmed with OS after Windows 7.
In addition, it is recommended to use Windows 10.
Caution
■Please refer the restrictions below when you use ARTCAM series.
(1) Recommended System Requirements
If the system specifications do not meet the requirements recommended above, it may be difficult to
run at the maximum frame rate.
(2) Connection of Multiple USB Devices
When connecting multiple USB devices to one USB host controller, some USB device may fail to
function stably depending on the specifications of the host controller.
(Problem of power supply, data transfer bandwidth, etc.)
To avoid power supply problem, it is recommended to use powered USB hub.
(3) USB2.0 Cable Extension
We cannot guarantee the functionality of the USB2.0 camera if the user adopts USB2.0 extension
cables or repeaters which are not confirmed by us. With the extension cables or repeaters, the
bandwidth of transfer may differ, and thus caused malfunctions such as a low frame rate or recognition
failure on the camera.
What may cause the problem is that the regulation of the power lines becomes not enough, and so
causes impudence mismatch on data signals.
*For the recommended extension cable, please contact our sales department.
