1. Introduction 

 

1.1 General Description 

 

The UP-680/UP-680CL is a 10-bit, 659 x 494 full frame resolution digital CCD camera using 

progressive scanning interline-transfer technology.  The square pixels are especially suitable for 

processing, measuring, and analyzing tasks. High speed moving objects can easily be captured 

with the external asynchronous capture control.  This compact and lightweight camera offers 

excellent signal to noise performance.  It’s compatible with most popular frame grabbers in the 

market.  The “user-friendly” RS-232C interface control allows users to control all camera functions 

without physically touching the camera.
