Boson Camera Link Accessory Kit (421-0063-00)

Expansion board for Boson cameras that matches the functionality of the VPC module, and enables the camera to be interfaced to a Camera Link frame grabber, allowing the capture of digital 16-bit video data. (Does not include Camera Link cable, frame grab board, or data capture software.)

Boson Development Board (250-0705-00)

A breakout board is available for Boson users and integrators that need easy access to the Boson I/O and interfaces. This board is designed for development purposes, and is not intended or rated for long-term reliability over temperature. Improvements from the original breakout board (SKU 250-0593-00) include exposing the data_valid signal for CMOS video, selection for the power input while using USB (USB or externally supplied power through banana plug), and external sync input/output.

Boson Test Board, Detail PCB ASSY

Development breakout board for Boson users and integrators that need easy access to the Boson I/O and interfaces. This board is intended for user development purposes, and is not intended or rated for long term reliability over temperature.

The Boson video/power/control (VPC) is an accessory that adapts the native high-density electrical connector to a simpler USB-C interface. The Kit includes a VPC adapter, as well as a biurcated cable with USB-A (power/control) and BNC (video) connectors.

Boson VPC w/Cables (421-0061-00)

The Boson video/power/control (VPC) is an accessory that adapts the native high-density electrical connector to a simpler USB-C interface. The Kit includes a VPC adapter, and a USB-C to USB-A cable.

Neutrino LC Camera Link Accessory

The Camera Link accessory converts CMOS video signal into a Camera-Link-compliant output via SDR-26 receptacle. Communication and power are provided via a standard USB-3 micro-B.

Neutrino LC Development Kit

Provides all output options on a single PCB and easy access to the full 80-pin camera interface for development. Includes a flex cable between the board and the camera and a wire harness to the cooler interface.

Neutrino LC USB VPC Kit

The USB Video Power Connector (VPC) kit turns the Neutrino LC camera into a webcam. Power, digital video, and comm are all via USB2. The kit includes a USB-A to USB-C cable.

Neutrino LC USB/Analog VPC Kit

The USB VPC kit with an additional custom 6-foot cable with a BNC pigtail provides an additional analog video signal (NTSC-compliant).

Neutrino LC Utility Kit

Provides all output options on a single PCB. Includes a wire harness to the cooler interface. The accessory board converts video signal into a Camera-Link-compliant output via a SDR-26 receptacle.

Neutrino SX8 Accessory Board

The Utility Kit provides Camera link and HDMI video output to a single development electronics board. The kit includes a wire harness for camera and cooler power. Communication and power to the Neutrino SX8 camera electronics is provided via a USB driver to a virtual COM port. External sync input/output signals are provided with standard MCX connectors. A header connector is provided for RS-422 lens control.

Photon Replicator Board for Tau 2

This expansion board adapts the Tau camera's native 50-pin Hirose connnector to the 30-pin SAMTEC connector used on FLIR's Photon cameras. The replicator board makes the Tau camera electrically pin-compatible to a Photon camera. Without a Photon Replicator Board, the input voltage range is 4.0-6.0 VDC for a Tau 320 camera, and 4.4-6.0 VDC for a Tau 640. With the Photon Replicator Board, the input voltage range is modified to 6.5-27.0 VDC.

Tau 2 Camera Link Expansion Board (421-0046-00)

The Camera Link module is an expansion board for the Tau cameras that matches the functionality of the VPC Module and adds the ability to access digital data via Camera Link connection. The Camera Link module takes CMOS-type digital data from the Tau camera and converts it to Camera Link. This module does not include a Camera Link cable, frame grabber, or capture software.

Tau 2 PCB Wearsaver with Solder Pads (421-0047-00)

Adapter that furnishes a solder pad interface. The PCB Wearsaver is a low-profile adapter that attaches to the Tau’s 50-pin Hirose connector, furnishing a solder pad interface. Schematic included.

Tau 2 VPC (Video, Power, Communication) Module Kit (421-0039-00)

The Module allows evaluation of the camera core and access to analog video. The Tau Camera can be used with either the VPC Module Accessory (FLIR PN 421-0039-00) or the Camera Link Module Accessory (FLIR PN 421-0046-00). These accessories provide an easy way to evaluate the camera core and access analog and, in the case of the Camera Link Module, digital video during development. The VPC module accessory includes USB-A to USB-mini B cable for power and communications, USB power supply, European power adapter, MCX-to-BNC cable for analog video, and mounting screws.

Tau 2 VPC Module only (no cables) (500-0426-00)

The Tau 2 video/power/control (VPC) is an accessory that adapts the native high-density electrical interface to a USB Mini-B connector for power and control, as well as an MCX (micro-coaxial) connector for analog video. This part number is for the VPC only, cables are not included.

Tau SWIR NS Camera Link Expansion Board (421-0058-00)

Expansion board for Tau SWIR cameras that matches the functionality of the VPC module, and adds the ability to access digital data via mini-Camera Link connection. Installation instructions can be found in the Tau SWIR Users Guide. (Does not include Camera Link cable, frame grab board, or data capture software.)

The Tau SWIR camera will be discontinued on December 30, 2022. Support for all Tau SWIR configurations will continue through June 30, 2025.

Tau SWIR VPC (421-0059-00)

The Tau SWIR video/power/control (VPC) is an accessory that adapts the native high-density electrical connector to a mini-USB interface for power and control, and mini-coaxial (MCX) connector for analog video. The Kit includes a VPC adapter, as well as a 6-ft MCX to BNC video cable, 3-ft USB-A to Mini-B cable, 5W-5VDC power supply.

The Tau SWIR camera will be discontinued on December 30, 2022. Support for all Tau SWIR configurations will continue through June 30, 2025.
