AR2020 20MP Monochrome FPD Link III Camera

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.
