Xcelera-CL+ PX8 Full
PCI Express x8 Frame Grabber
Advanced PCIe x8 image acquisition
Building on the field proven technology and performance of Teledyne DALSA’s X64 frame grabbers
the new X64 Xcelera Series leverages the PCI Express (PCIe) platform to bring traditional image
acquisition and processing technology to new levels of performance and flexibility.
The PCIe host interface is a point-to-point host interface allowing simultaneous image acquisition
and transfer without loading the system bus and involving little intervention from the host CPU.
Designed with the requirements of the machine vision OEMs in mind, the Xcelera Series will range
from entry level frame grabbers, to high-performance image acquisition boards,
to embedded vision processors.
Addressing the emerging needs of bandwidth-hungry machine vision applications, Teledyne DALSA’s
Xcelera Series is defining next generation frame grabber capabilities with the ability to deliver
bandwidth beyond 1GByte/s over multiple-lane PCI Express implementations with room to grow.
The X64 Xcelera-CL+ PX8 Full is a Camera Link frame grabber that is based on the PCI Express x8
interface. Compatible with a Base, Medium or Full Camera Link camera, the X64 Xcelera-CL+ PX8
Full supports a wide variety of multi-tap area and line scan colour and monochrome cameras. The
X64 Xcelera-CL+ PX8 Full board can interface with advanced Camera Link camera output formats
including 10-taps of 8-bit/pixel or 8-taps of 10-bit/pixel at 85MHz pixel clock rates.

The X64 Xcelera-CL+ PX8 Full has been built within Teledyne DALSA’s Trigger-to-Image Reliability
technology framework. Trigger-to-Image Reliability leverages Teledyne DALSA’s hardware and
software innovations to control, monitor and correct the image acquisition process from the
time that an external trigger event occurs to the moment the data is sent to the host, providing
traceability when errors do occur and permitting recovery from those errors.
