1. Scope of Application
This is to describe VCC-G22U21ACL Power Over Camera Link B/W CCD Camera. All specifications contained
herein are subject to change without prior notice. Reproduction in whole or in part is prohibited.
2. Handling Precautions
The camera 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.
zDo not use or store the camera in the following extreme conditions:
¾Extremely dusty or humid places.
¾Extremely hot or cold places (operating temperature –5 to +45 )℃℃
¾Close to generators of powerful electromagnetic radiation such as radio or TV transmitters.
¾Places subject to fluorescent light reflections.
¾Places subject to unstable (flickering, etc.) lighting conditions.
¾Places subject to strong vibration.
zRemove dust or dirt on the surface of the lens with a blower.
zDo not apply excessive force or static electricity that could damage the camera.
zDo not shoot direct images that are extremely bright (e.g., light source, sun, etc.), and when camera
is not in use, put the lens cap on.
zFollow the instructions in Chapter 6, “External connector pin assignment” for connecting the camera.
Improper connection may cause damages not only to the camera but also to the connected devices.
zConfirm the mutual ground potential carefully and then connect the camera to monitors or computers.
AC leaks from the connected devices may cause damages or destroy the camera.
zDo not apply excessive voltage. (Use only the specified voltage.) Unstable or improper power supply
voltage may cause damages or malfunction of the camera.

zThe voltage ripple of camera power DC +12V±10% shall be within ±50mV. Improper power
supply voltage may cause noises on the video signals.
zThe rising time of camera power supply voltage shall be less than +10V, Max 60ms. Please
avoid noises like chattering when rising.
In case of abnormal operation, contact the distributor from whom you purchased the product.

3. Product Outline
VCC-G22U21ACL is a high-resolution industrial B/W digital video camera module utilizing a 1/1.8 type PS IT CCD.
2M pixels CCD image sensor with on-chip micro-lenses realizes high sensitivity and high resolution.
At Full Frame Scan Mode, entire pixels can be read out within approx. 1/20s. Interface of G22U21ACL complies
with camera link standard.
Key Features
□ Camera settings can be changed via serial communications.
□ Selectable 8 bit or 10 bit.
□ 1/20～1/40,000s shutter speeds can be set per 1H.
□ Full frame scan mode and three different partial scan modes are available.
□ Approx. 20 fps at full frame scan mode.
□ Only 29mm cubic in size (excluding projection), light weight 50g, and speed makes it a best match for
use in embedded systems.
