1. General
The KP-F140F is single CCD type camera which utilized the progressive scan CCD image sensor
with square pixel for SXGA format of 1 / 2-inch.
By adoption of an IEEE1394.b interface, high-speed connection of maximum of 800 Mbps can be
possible. Moreover, by daisy chain, construction of multiple camera system can be easily performed.
2. Principal features
1) High resolution
The 1/2-inch 1,450,000 pixels square lattice progressive scan CCD achieve a high resolution and
of 1360(H) x 1024(V) (SXGA).
2) IEEE1394.b interface
High-speed serial interface IEEE1394.b is supported and direct connection is possible to PC by
the diameter cable of thin as compared with parallel output. It is possible to be supplied power and
trigger by one cable, and connectable to a 4 sets/port by daisy chain.
3) IIDC1.31 correspondence
Based on uncompressed data protocol IIDC1394-based Digital Camera Specification Ver.1.31, a
maximum of 800Mbps high speed data transmit is available and suitable for image processing.
4) Various output formats
Various output formats are available, such as the high quality picture format and the high frame
rate for multiple connection picture format, according to the usage and the situation.
Ex. SXGA: 1360(H) x 1024(V) / Mono8nit / 15fps
VGA: 640(H) x 480(V) / Mono8bit / 30fps x 4 sets
5) A daisy chain
The KP-F140F have two IEE1394.b connectors, it can link together cameras. Since one PC and
the minimum number of cable can control the plural camera, simple system integration can be
realized.
6) CCD drive functions
･Auto electronic Shutter mode (AES)
Adjusted automatically from approx. 1/100,000 second to 10 second.
･Variable electronic shutter mode
Variable from approx. 1/100,000 second to 10 second.
7) External trigger
An external trigger signal input can be used to capture an image at desired timing for instant view
or processing. The software trigger via an IEEE1394 cable and our original system corresponding
to the hardware trigger can deal with all trigger signals.

d) Rest control
Note: Special function of reset control Trigger
The camera shifts to the output of a normal mode (continuous output) when Trigger signal passes about 1/3 seconds in the state of
High. (The image is output by inputting the Trigger at the VD cycle for this period.)
It returns to the Trigger mode if Trigger signal becomes Low. However, after becoming Low Trigger, the period of 1 second becomes
a Trigger signal input prohibition period.
