4—Tau 640 Digital Data Channel

TAU-0640-00-10, version 110

June 2011

4-7

4.5 Photon Camera Legacy LVDS Output

The Tau 640 camera provides a digital data channel that outputs camera data in a digital 
format compatible with FLIR Photon camera tools and accessories. This channel can be used in 
conjunction with commercially-available digital frame grabbers, digital displays, or custom 
electronics. For Tau 640 users with applications that require custom control software, a 
Software Developer’s Kit (SDK) is available to support your development. The SDK accessory is 
described in the Accessories portion of this User’s Manual. Using the Digital Data Channel is an 
advanced regime that should only be attempted by qualified customers.

The digital data channel can be configured to output 14-bit data after application of calibration 
(Non Uniformity Correction or NUC) terms. This mode is most useful for external signal-
processing and/or analysis of the camera output. The digital channel can also be configured to 
provide 8-bit data after application of video processing algorithms—Automatic AGC mode, 
white-hot/black-hot polarity, image orientation (

Invert

, but not 

Revert

), and DDE filtered. The 8-

bit data is essentially a digital version of the video stream provided on the analog video channel 
and is therefore more appropriate than the 14-bit data for interfacing to a digital display.

The digital data channel employs serial low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS). The channel 
consists of three signal lines—a clock, a composite sync (frame sync and data valid), and serial 
data. This is a modern high speed interface employing a twisted pair current loop architecture. 
National Semiconductor offers a good introduction and overview in the following document:

http://www.national.com/appinfo/lvds/files/lvds_ch1.pdf

.

A serial-in-parallel-out (SIPO) module is available from FLIR for converting the serial data to 14-
bit parallel LVDS output (plus frame sync, line sync, and pixel clock). The parallel data can be 
captured using a frame-grabber board installed in a PC. 

One frame grabber possibility is the National Instruments IMAQ PCI-1422 board using digital 
interface cable part number 308-0013-00. Another frame grabber option is the Bit Flow 
RoadRunner Model 14-M board using digital interface cable part number 308-0016-00-03. 
Both of these computer-based frame grabber boards require third-party software not offered 
or supported by FLIR. 

FLIR supplies camera setup files for both the IMAQ and Bit Flow frame grabber boards, but 
FLIR does not formally support their use, nor do we claim or guarantee that these setup files 
will be suitable for any particular use or application.
