The Komodo 4 channel CoaXPress™ Frame Grabber can receive a video stream from up to four CoaXPress links in single, dual, quad or octal modes. It captures up to 2 quad link cameras simultaneously. Each link handles standard CoaXPress bitrates up to 6.25 or 12.5 Gbps. Video streams can be linked and transmitted to computer memory through the PCIe interface. GPIO is included for machine control signals, such as triggers, shaft encoders, exposure control and general I/O which can be controlled separately from video stream acquisition. Connectors are DIN for CoaXPress to the camera, and standard 100 mm headers for general purpose I/O. Upload videos to a computer is via PCIeG3 4 lane.
The 4 channel KY-FGK-400 Komodo CoaXpress frame grabber features up to 4x 6.25 or 12.5 Gbps channels (optional 4 simultaneous re-transmit channels), PCIe Gen3 x8 interface with up to 55 Gbps throughput, 4GB DDR4 memory, PoCXP support on all channels, on board image processing (including FFC, DeBayer, and color correction), and flexible GPIO interface.
The Komodo CoaXPress Frame Grabber with 4 channels supports multiple modes of configuration and system topology. Few of these are presented in following diagrams.
