Supported Sensors

The qtec C-Series qt5222 platform has support for a wide selection of different sensors from the Sony IMX, ams CMOSIS/GPixel GMAX and GPixel GSENSE families.

However, only a subset of these sensors is currently part of qtec's standard product catalog. For example as the RGB AI Cameras or the Hypervision HSI cameras.

Contact info@qtec.com for specific inquiries about sensors.

Max FPS

The maximum framerate is measured at the full resolution and in 8-bit mode.

It is directly proportional to the selected image height, therefore the maximum framerate will be higher if a smaller image is used. It also depends on the selected bit mode: 8-bit mode being the fastest and 12-bit mode the slowest.

SLVS-EC

The IMX42x family of sensors supports higher data rates than it's predecessors (fx. IMX25x) via the SLVS-EC interface instead of the standard SLVS.

In order to have access to the higher speeds allowed by the SLVS-EC interface it is necessary to use compatible firmware and hardware (revB sensor board).

Max FPS

The maximum framerate is measured at the full resolution and in 12-bit mode.

It is directly proportional to the selected image height, therefore the maximum framerate will be higher if a smaller image is used.

The GSENSE2020 sensor has the option for running with either global or rolling shutter. Global shutter is generally faster, but rolling shutter allows for selecting invididual lines (which can also provide a big speed-up).

Max FPS

The maximum framerate is measured at the full resolution and in 10-bit mode.

It is directly proportional to the selected image height, therefore the maximum framerate will be higher if a smaller image is used. It also depends on the selected bit mode: 10-bit mode being the fastest and 12-bit mode the slowest.
