Bare board cameras
If you intend to design an application using bare board cameras, please consider:
• Aligning the sensor to the lens is extremely difficult and expensive. Therefore,
we recommend you to do evaluation with housed cameras first.
• Bare board cameras are specialized components. We cannot give all data
needed for any application in advance.
• Please let us partner with you for bare board camera applications to ensure a
successful design.
Serial numbers of Alvium® chips and bare
board cameras
Bare board cameras do not have enough space for a label with all the required
information. Therefore, they are shipped with a 25 mm × 25 mm sandwich label on
the blister pack. This label shows, for example:
• Product code: 14767 for a 1800 U-240c Bare Board 90° camera
• Alvium
®
chip SN (serial number): 183603543
• Camera SN (serial number): R7QW5 as digits and 2D code.
Before operating the camera, we recommend you to pull the sandwich label off
the blister pack and stick it close to the camera.
CAUTION
Risk of burns
A camera in operation can reach temperature levels which could cause burns.
• Wear protective gloves when you touch a camera that is heated up.
• Ensure proper cooling of the camera.
