Overview

This camera (XCI-SX100/SX100C/V100/V100C) is a 
black and white (XCI-SX100/V100) or color (XCI-
SX100C/V100C) intelligent camera that can capture 
and process images, and control peripheral devices by 
itself.

Features

High image quality

Equipped with 1/3-type progressive scan CCDs, the 
XCI-SX100/SX100C can produce outstanding picture 
quality and high-resolution SXGA images (1,250,000 
pixels) and the XCI-V100/V100C can capture clear 
images in VGA resolution (330,000 pixels).

High-performance x86-compatible 
processor

• VIA Eden ULV processor with 1 GHz internal clock 

speed.
MMX-, SSE-, SSE2-, and SSE3-compatible. Low 
power consumption.

• 512 MB DDR2 SDRAM

PC standard input/output interface

• LAN connector
• VGA-compatible monitor (Analog RGB) output 

connector

• Hi-speed USB (USB 2.0) connector

Electronic shutter function

Shutter speed can be selected from among a variety of 
available speeds.

External trigger shutter function 
(2 to 1/50,000 sec.)

You can obtain a freeze frame by inputting an external 
trigger signal. This function is useful for shooting a fast-
moving object clearly.

Partial scan

The camera module can limit the effective video output 
area to achieve high frame rates, enabling high-speed 
image processing.

Binning (XCI-SX100/V100 only)

Through vertical binning (combining two vertically 
adjacent pixels), you can decrease the data volume for 
sensor output images while retaining the entire angle of 
view, thereby increasing the image processing speed. 
Through horizontal binning (combining two 
horizontally adjacent pixels), you can obtain video 
outputs with higher sensitivity.

Excellent Picture Quality

XCI-SX100C/V100C has a color interpolation 
algorithm that produces highly detailed images.

Auto iris

With the lens-control signal output from the 6-pin auto 
iris port, the camera module can control a connected DC 
iris lens. If you remove the C mount adaptor, the camera 
module can support a CS mount DC iris lens.

Body fixing

Four screw holes to be used to install the camera are 
provided both on the top and the bottom of the camera. 
Installing the camera module on the front panel 
minimizes deviation of the optical axis.

Tripod

You can mount the camera on a tripod by tightening the 
tripod screws.
