MATROX

Solios eCL / XCL-B Camera Link frame grabber

The Matrox Solios eCL/XCL-B is a Camera Link® frame grabber for cost sensitive

applications. Its acquisition capabilities and PCI Express® (PCIe®) or PCI-X® bus

interface make the Matrox Solios eCL/XCL-B an excellent match for entry-level

cameras.

 

Matrox Solios eCL/XCL-B operates as a single-Base Camera Link® frame grabber

featuring Power over Camera Link® (PoCL) with SafePower. With an acquisition speed

of up to 85 MHz4 and multi-tap support including complete image reconstruction the Matrox Solios eCL/XCL-B is able to handle the most popular entry-level industrial

or scientific area and line scan cameras. It can also transparently convert between

monochrome and packaged/planar RGB color spaces enabling optimum representation

of image data for processing and/or display freeing valuable host resources.

 

One lane PCIe® (x1) and PCI-X® are the interfaces used to connect to the host PC

on the Matrox Solios eCL-B and Matrox Solios XCL-B frame grabber boards

respectively. PCIe® is the follow-on to conventional PCI and PCI-X® whereas PCI-X®

is a backwards-compatible enhancement to conventional PCI. Both the PCIe® x1 and

PCI-X® implementations offers the right balance of performance and cost.
