Description
The PCI-1408 is a versatile frame grabber part, with the part number 183800B-01. It falls under the category of Frame Grabbers and is designed to support a variety of video standards including PAL, RS-170, NTSC, and CCIR. This device offers an 8-bit resolution for capturing and processing video signals.
It features a Pixel Clock Rate that ranges from 5-20 MHz, allowing for flexible and efficient video signal processing. Additionally, it includes one 8-bit Look-Up Table (LUT) for enhanced video output quality. The Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) is integrated into the device, ensuring high-quality video signal conversion from analog to digital format. Moreover, this frame grabber is factory calibrated, guaranteeing accurate and reliable performance right out of the box.
For synchronization purposes, the PCI-1408 includes an integrated RTSI Bus. Its programming flexibility is evident with support for various options including MAQ Vision LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and more, catering to a wide range of application needs. The device operates in two main modes: VIDEO0 input mode and External CLK input mode, providing versatility in handling different video input sources.
The input sources for VIDEO0 include a BNC connector and a DSUB type 25-pin port, with the VIDEO0 input modes offering Differential input (DIFF) and Referenced single-ended mode (RSE) for flexibility in video signal acquisition. Despite its obsolete status declared by National Instruments, the PCI-1408 remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, ensuring continued support for users of this powerful frame grabber.
