Description :
The Armor-2020MRS-FPD3 is a 20MP monochrome camera module powered by the Onsemi Hyperlux LP AR2020 sensor. Without a color filter in the light path each 1.4µm BSI pixel gathers more signal. The result is sharp grayscale output with high contrast and excellent sensitivity in low light and near infrared conditions.
The module streams over the FPD Link III SerDes interface. Video and control data and power share a single coaxial cable, so the module can be installed far from the host processor without any loss in image quality. The rugged Armor series builds suits robots and industrial vehicles along with outdoor vision systems that run day and night. It links to NVIDIA Jetson Orin platforms through a compatible deserializer board.
Core Benefits
20MP Monochrome Resolution: Records fine grayscale detail at 5120 x 3840 for measurement and inspection and text recognition.
Superior Low Light Sensitivity: No color filter array means more light reaches every pixel for clean images in dim scenes.
Strong Near Infrared Response: Hyperlux LP pixels perform well under NIR illumination for night operation and covert monitoring.
Long Distance Transmission: FPD Link III carries high speed video over coaxial cables across long runs between the module and the host.
Single Cable Design: Video and control data and power travel on one cable to cut wiring and installation time.
Low Latency Streaming: Direct SerDes transfer keeps delay low for real time decisions in moving systems.
Rugged Armor Build: Engineered for vibration and harsh field conditions in automotive and industrial use.
Applications:
Automatic number plate recognition and traffic enforcement
Night vision for autonomous mobile robots and guided vehicles
Driver and cabin monitoring with NIR illumination
Barcode and OCR reading on logistics and sorting lines
Precision inspection and metrology in factory automation
Crop health and NIR analysis on agricultural machinery
Low light perimeter security and border surveillance

What sensor does the 20MP Monochrome FPD Link III SerDes Camera use?
The Armor-2020MRS-FPD3 FPD Link III SerDes Camera is built on the Onsemi Hyperlux™ LP AR2020 CMOS sensor. It captures 20MP monochrome images at a maximum resolution of 5120 × 3840, featuring 1.4µm BSI pixels for detailed grayscale imaging and improved light sensitivity.
What are the video formats supported by the camera?
A Monochrome FPD Link III SerDes Camera does not use a color filter array, allowing each pixel to capture the full available light signal. This improves light sensitivity, grayscale detail, and edge definition, making it suitable for machine vision, precision inspection, measurement, barcode scanning, and OCR applications
Does the Armor-2020MRS-FPD3 FPD Link III SerDes Camera support near-infrared (NIR) imaging?
Yes. The Armor-2020MRS-FPD3 FPD Link III SerDes Camera offers near-infrared sensitivity and can be paired with 850nm or 940nm NIR illumination for low-light imaging, night vision, driver monitoring, and industrial inspection applications.
What interface does the Armor-2020MRS-FPD3 FPD Link III SerDes Camera use?
The Armor-2020MRS-FPD3 uses the FPD Link III SerDes interface for high-speed video and control data transmission. An onboard serializer converts image data for transmission over a single coaxial cable to a compatible FPD Link III deserializer connected to the host processor.
What is the maximum cable length supported by the 20MP Monochrome FPD Link III SerDes Camera?
The Armor-2020MRS-FPD3 FPD Link III SerDes Camera has been tested with coaxial cable lengths of up to 15 meters. This allows flexible camera placement away from the host processor in autonomous robots, industrial vehicles, and distributed vision systems.
Does the Monochrome FPD Link III SerDes Camera support Power over Coax (PoC)?
Yes. The Armor-2020MRS-FPD3 FPD Link III SerDes Camera supports Power over Coax (PoC), allowing power, video, and control data to travel through a single coaxial cable. This reduces wiring complexity and simplifies integration in robotics, automotive, and industrial vision systems.
