1. Handling Precautions
The camera module must not be used for any nuclear equipments or aerospace equipments with which
mechanical failure or malfunction could result in serious bodily injury or loss of human life. Our warranty does
not apply to damages or defects caused by irregular and/or abnormal use of the product.
Please observe all warnings and cautions stated below.
Our warranty does not apply to damages or malfunctions caused by neglecting these precautions.
Do not use or store the camera module in the dusty or humid places.
Do not apply excessive force or static electricity that could damage the camera module.
Do not shoot direct images that are extremely bright (e.g., light source, sun, etc). When the camera is not
in use, please put the protection cap on.
Follow the instructions in Chapter 6, “External Connector Pin Assignment” for connecting the camera
module. Improper connection may cause damages not only to the camera module but also to the
connected devices.
Confirm the mutual ground potential carefully and then connect the camera module to monitors or
computers. AC leaks from the connected devices may cause damages or destroy the camera module.
Do not apply excessive voltage. (Use only the specified voltage.) Unstable or improper power supply
voltage may cause damages or malfunction of the camera assembly.
DCC-HD3 is an assembly unit for camera modules. It is designed based on the premise of embedding it in
a camera casing. Therefore, appropriate heat dissipation needs to be fully considered when embedding it.
Assembly without appropriate heat dissipation may cause damages or malfunction.

<3G-SDI output Level A and Level B>
A difference between Level A and Level B is a way of mapping Y signal and Cb/Cr signal onto 3G-SDI standard signal. The
difference does not affect the resolution of the video signal. Some 3G-SDI receivers correspond to either Level A or B,
whereas other receivers correspond to both Levels, so please set the camera mode to match your 3G-SDI receiver.

7. Guideline for Thermal design
This camera module is designed for embedding into a chassis. Therefore, operating the board itself without heat dissipation
will exceed the tolerance of the operation temperature of component parts. The operation temperature will reach 130℃
when operating the FPGA without casing. Never leave it operating without casing as it may cause burn injury and damages
to the camera. Please refer to the guideline below for designing heat dissipation.
7.1. Operating temperature of main parts
Board (ref) Data sheet value Upper limit temperature of
IC package surface
Image sensor BI-HD3(IC1) ta=75℃85℃
FPGA MB-HD2X(IC1) tj=85℃80℃
CPU MB-HD2X(IC4) ta=85℃95℃
SDI IC PD-HD1X(IC3) ta=85℃95℃
The upper limit temperature of the package is ta+10℃for parts defined as “ta” on a data sheet.
As the data sheet value of FPGA is defined as “tj,” the upper limit temperature of FPGA shall be 80℃based on the
thermal conductivity of the package and power consumption.
Please dissipate heat so that the surface temperature of the IC package on a board in the chassis will not exceed the
upper limit temperature. Please measure the temperature in the usage environment.
Give the first priority of heat dissipation to the FPGA because it is the major heat source.
7.2. How to measure the temperature of the device surface
Tape a thermocouple on the device surface, make a slit in the heat conducting sheet, and then make the heat-sink be
appressed onto it to measure temperature.
(E.g.：Temperature measurement of the FPGA surface)

Input analog external sync signals (black burst or 3-value SYNC) to the EXT SYNC IN terminal of 6pins connector to
enable Gen Lock function.

・Input Black Burst signals for NTSC/PAL signal.
・Input 3-value SYNC signals for other than NTSC/PAL signal.
・EXT SYNC IN is terminated with 75Ω. (It becomes high impedance when camera power is OFF).
・When the external signals specified above are input, the camera becomes external sync mode automatically.
・When no external signal is input, the camera operates in internal sync mode.
・The image may be disturbed right after the external signal is input, but this is not malfunction.
・When a signal other than specified above combination is input to the EXT SYNC IN terminal, the image might be
disturbed or no image might be output.
9. LTC (Longitudinal Time code)
Time code can be inserted into 3G/HD SDI signals.
Input LTC signals (time code) to the LTC IN terminal of the 6pins connector to insert external time code.
And, when no signal is input into the LTC IN terminal, internal time code can be inserted.
Internal time code starts with 00:00:00. 00 when power is ON, and when any signals are input into the LTC IN terminal,
it will be switched to the external time code.
With this situation, if no signal is input into the LTC IN terminal, it starts self-running from the set time code.
Signal Format: SMPTE Time code Signal Level: 0.5 ~ 2[Vp-p]

10. Defective Pixel Correction
10.1. Precautions
When the user executes Defective Pixel Correction and “SAVE”, the data at the factory setting will be over-written, so
that the data cannot be restored to the factory setting data even when “INIT” command was executed. Execute “INIT”,
then “SAVE” to overwrite the preset data (camera settings) with the factory setting data.
If you do not wish to overwrite the preset data, load the preset data before executing SAVE. The defective pixel
correction data will be saved in one area regardless of its preset number.
Since the function only supports the white defects correction, the black defects cannot be corrected. And, the function
is not necessarily able to correct all the white defects. In addition, due to the effect from the noise or the temperature
conditions, the correction result may not be always the same.
Please be noted that improper command execution such as under no light-blocking, or taking wrong procedure, may
cause incorrect operation of the executed command function or abnormal images.
10.2. How to execute “Defective Pixel Correction”
・Execute “INIT” to restore to the factory settings.
・Attach the bundled cap to the lens mount for light-blocking, then wait for about 5 seconds..
・Execute “Defective Pixel Correction” and SAVE.
11. Serial Communication

・Input COMMAND in capital letters.
・Parameters with 0x are regarded as hexadecimal, the one with 0 are as octal, and the one as-is are as decimal to parse.
・Numbers (0～9), decimal point, and alphabet other than hexadecimal (0～9, a～f) cannot be input.
・Identifiable letters from the head are to be analyzed.
・Command from the head to the linefeed code, [¥r]or[¥n], is to be regarded as one command to be analyzed.
・The command sent from the PC will be received by the camera, and then echoed back.
・The end of the command shall be judged by >[sp].
・Please issue the next command when the prior command is completed.
