PIXCI® miniH2B

Embedded Dual Base Camera Link Frame Grabber

Smallest embedded dual base camera link frame grabber plugs into a mini PCI express card slot via a flat Samtec cable. PIXCI® miniH2B captures digital video from any two base camera link cameras and burst transfers images to the mini PCIe bus at 500 megabytes per second with sustained rates of 409 megabytes per second. Includes software to capture, view, and store images.
