Summary of E-CON SYSTEMS LAUNCHES 4K MIPI CSI-2 CAMERA SUPPORT FOR TORADEX’S I.MX8 SYSTEM ON MODULES (SOMS)
e-con Systems partnered with Toradex to provide MIPI CSI-2 camera module support for Toradex Apalis i.MX8 SoMs. They launched multiple modules including the flagship 4K e-CAM137A_CUMI1335_MOD (ON Semiconductor AR1335 sensor, 4208x3120) with an M12 lens holder, and the 5MP e-CAM55_CUMI0521_MOD (AR0521 sensor, 2592x1944) offering better low-light performance. Additional modules (e-CAM130_MI1335_MOD autofocus 4K and e-CAM56_CUMI0521_MOD 5MP monochrome) and more cameras for the Verdin SoM family are planned.
Parts used in the e-CAM137A_CUMI1335_MOD Project:
- e-CAM137A_CUMI1335_MOD camera module
- ON Semiconductor AR1335 image sensor
- M12 lens holder
- Toradex Apalis i.MX8 System on Module
- e-CAM55_CUMI0521_MOD camera module
- ON Semiconductor AR0521 image sensor
- e-CAM130_MI1335_MOD camera module (upcoming)
- e-CAM56_CUMI0521_MOD monochrome camera module (upcoming)
- Verdin family SoMs (for future camera support)
e-con Systems Inc, a leading embedded vision camera manufacturer is excited to announce their partnership with Toradex, a leading embedded System on Module provider.
Further, e-con Systems has launched a bouquet of MIPI CSI-2 camera module support for Toradex’s iMX8 SoM series, Apalis. Among the camera modules would be e-con’s flag ship 4Kcamera module, e-CAM137A_CUMI1335_MOD. By launching variety of camera modules with different image sensors and various features, e-con Systems enables Toradex Apalis i.MX8 customers to address multiple applications.
e-con Systems’ e-CAM137A_CUMI1335_MOD is based on 1/3.2 inch ON Semiconductor’s AR1335 high resolution sensor with a pixel array of 4208H x 3120V. The camera module supports a M12 holder which allows the customer to interchange various lenses.
Other than the 4K camera module, the initial launch includes e-CAM55_CUMI0521_MOD, 5MP MIPI CSI-2 camera module based on 1/2.5 inch ON Semiconductor’s AR0521 sensor with active pixel array 2592 (H) x 1944 (V). The larger pixel size of AR0521 provides superior low light performance enabling quality imaging systems in varied lighting environments.
In addition, e-con Systems would be soon launching e-CAM130_MI1335_MOD, 4K Autofocus camera module and e-CAM56_CUMI0521_MOD, 5MP MIPI CSI-2 Monochrome module for Toradex’s iMX8 SoMs. Also more cameras would be launched soon for Verdin family of SoMs
