General Description
The Cyton-CXP
CYT-1-8
BitFlow, Inc.
Version A.0
1.3.9 CoaXPress Power
The CoaXPress specification specifies that the frame grabber must be cable of supply-
ing up to 13 W at 24V on each CXP link. The Cyton-CXP conforms to this specification.
Some cameras do not require power, so the Cyton-CXP can optionally turn power on
or off via its registers. Normally this information is part of the camera configuration
file, thus files for cameras that require power are so indicated.
The Cyton-CXP automatically powers up all links that need power (i.e. correctly
responde to the sense circuit). This happens as soon as the system is booted.
The Cyton-CXP constantly monitors the current on each CXP link, if either over current
or under current conditions exist, the power will be turned off. The monitoring system
is purely in hardware, so no host computer intervention is required in order to safe-
guard the power source.
For situation where the camera requires more power than the PCIe bus can supply to
the frame grabber, the P4 connector can be use. This connector can be connect to the
PC’s power supply and all camera power will come from this connector.
