Teledyne Lumenera Lt Board-Level Series Board-Level Overview •1
1Board-Level Overview
1.1 Description
Teledyne Lumenera USB 3 Vision compliant cameras provide a quick and easy means of capturing
high quality images on any USB 3.0 equipped desktop, laptop or embedded computer. Because
they are USB-based, there is no need for a frame grabber. Instead, a single cable provides full
command control and data transfer at speeds of up to 380 MB/s (LT series).
USB 3 cameras are powered via the USB 3 computer port. Cameras also have an external interface
header for hardware input, output signals and optional camera power.
Some of the Lt Board-Level Series feature highlights include:
•Compliant with third party USB3 Vision application development software
•Color or monochrome Sony IMX series CMOS sensors (global shutter & rolling shutter)
•High-Speed USB 3.1 Gen 1 interface for fastest image delivery and simplified connectivity
•128 MB low-latency RAM frame buffer
•Transfer Burst Mode supported
•Region of Interest (ROI) option to provide higher frame rates
•Selectable 8- or 12-bit pixel data
•Multiple data rates supported, each optimized for lowest noise performance
•Compact, robust form factor
•Locking industrial micro USB (power / data) and General Purpose I/O connectors for control of
peripherals and lighting synchronization
•The LT-xx1x-xxxxNBL series has a reduced I/O signal set on a locking 9-pin connector

2.1.3 Mean Time between Failure (MTBF)
Teledyne Lumenera MTBF calculations use the Parts Count/Parts Stress method. Calculated
assembly FIT values are rounded up with margin to provide adequate headroom and the final
quoted MTBF is then rounded down to the nearest year.
In practice, MILSTD217F is used to model passive and simple active parts, such as diodes and
transistors, because manufacturer data is unreliable. When MILSTD217F models are used to
represent more than one physical part, worst case parameters are used. Manufacturer's data is
used to model more complicated active parts, such as buffers and FPGAs, because the internal
structures are not known and the manufacturer data is more likely to be valid. When manufacturer
data is used, it is modified to meet specific use conditions using the Arrhenius equation and the
result is set to a 90% confidence level using the Chi-Squared Distribution Method. Again, when
more than one of the same part exists on an assembly, worst case parameters are used.
Manufacturer data is either obtained from the manufacturer’s website or provided directly from the
manufacturer.
The calculated MTBF only considers electronic components. It does not include mechanical parts
unless specified.
MTBF assumptions
•Fixed Ground Environment Readily Accessible for Maintenance
•Manufactured to Specification
•Proper Operating Conditions/Environment During Life Cycle
It is important to note that the MTBF result provided here is subject to change due to design
changes or as new reliability/test data becomes available.
