Video Input Port J6 Details (Cam 0)
8.1
Adapter boards
When acquiring video, a set of adapter boards are available to convert popular video signals to parallel
digital video for input to the J6 video input port. For specific details see
Parallel video can be acquired using an adapter board that accepts an FFC and FPC cable types. Mating
adapter boards are available that attach to specific camera types (Boson, Airborne, etc.). For more
information see the
ICD-OEM-Camera Side Interfaces
for cable instructions and precautions
.
For custom 4000-OEM board configurations, the information in this section can be used to specify
the timing and signals required from the camera interface to the corresponding J6 pin connections
.

Camera Power Considerations
•
Sony serial digital interface (Sony FCB cameras and compatible Tamron cameras)
•
HD-SDI camera interface
•
HDMI camera interface
•
Camera Link camera interface
•
Hitachi camera interface
•
Analog video (NTSC and PAL)
IMPORTANT:
The supply voltage level must be compatible with camera adapter board and
connected cameras. For example, the 3000-Sony camera adapter board passes supply voltage
directly to the attached camera. A Sony EH series camera can only support 6V - 12V. This would
limit the supply voltage to the 4000-OEM to this range.
IMPORTANT:
There are multiple rails available on the connectors to power a camera adapter
board or accessories. Do not exceed 0.8A on the 3.3V rail. Do not exceed 0.7A on the 1.8V rail.
8.3
Signal Levels and Lattice Crosslink FPGA
Unless otherwise specified, all video signal levels are 3.3 Volts
.
The maximum input frequency of the pixel clock is 150MHz. This is limited by the Lattice CrossLink
FPGA. The interface bridge is fully programmable, supporting a wide range of video formats, and data
rates up to 150 MHz at the CMOS input side.
Pixel data should be valid on the rising edge of the pixel clock.

Supported Standards
See
Table 4
Connector J6: 3000/4000 Video Adapter Input
Additional designations for data bits D0..D15 are included in this table in order to relate these to
Grayscale bits (G0..G15) and YCbCr input bits (Y,CbCr).
Unlike the 1500-OEM and 3000-OEM, the 4000-OEM has limitations on the supported resolutions, see
the
Camera Resolution and Pixel Clock
Requirements section.
