Temperature Monitor
The camera contains a temperature monitor system to protect the camera electronics from
damage due to excessive heat. There are 3 temperature sensing diodes in the camera:
Sensor PCB:
Temperature diode on the sensor board.
Proc PCB:
Temperature diode on the processor board.
FPGA:
Temperature diode on the camera FPGA.
The camera reads these 3 temperature values periodically and compares them to user-defined
higher and lower limits. These limits can be set individually for every temperature diode. If any
of the temperature diodes reports a temperature that is above its higher limit then the camera
is put to a power-down state where the TEC and the image sensor are shut down. No images
are acquired in power-down state. If the temperature of all temperature monitors is below
their higher limit and at least one of the temperatures is below its lower limit then the camera
resumes its normal operating state.
It is recommended to not set the higher limit higher than the predefined val-
ues: Sensor PCB HighLimit = 60.0 deg C, Proc PCB HighLimit = 60.0 deg C, FPGA
HighLimit = 79.99 deg C.
