We offer a special adapter board to operate a sensor separately from the line scan camera board. This allows the sensor to be mounted in places where there is little installation space. This adapter board is also suitable for providing the sensor with additional cooling to reduce dark noise.

With this solution, the connection between the camera and sensor is made via a 20 cm long ribbon cable, which can be easily disconnected using clamping plugs and reconnected after installation. The effective distance between the sensor and camera that can be bridged in this way is approx. 15 cm, as the cable should not be under mechanical tension during operation.

In principle, longer ribbon cables can also be used if required. However, the longer the cable, the greater the risk of external interference, which can either impair the signal quality or even make it completely impossible to operate the sensor.

Please note that the ribbon cable has no electrical shielding to reduce such external interference. In environments with very strong sources of electromagnetic interference, this can lead to problems even with a cable length of 20 cm, so that completely different solutions—such as connection via BNC cable or the use of additional drivers—must be used.
