Product overview
Small size. Big performance.
The XC-EI50/CE and XC-EI30/CE incorporate the latest 1/2 type and 1/3 type Interline (IT) CCD with near-infrared sensitivity. Sony surface mount technology results in an ultra compact, rugged unit that provides high quality images.
IR lighting has become very popular in machine vision applications. When used with an IR LED illuminator, these cameras can capture clear images because of their sensitivity at infrared wavelengths. In addition the XC-EI Series camera modules have high overall sensitivity. This makes them suitable for low light environments as well as for special IR lighting conditions.
A single standard 12-pin connector provides control of input/output signals as well as power.
The recommended camera adaptor for these units is the compact and lightweight DC-700/CE.

Latest interline CCDs
XC-ES50/CE and XC-EI50/CE utilise 1/2″ IT CCD, XC-ES30/CE and XC-EI30/CE utilise 1/3″ IT CCD of Sony’s latest interline
technology.
Miniature size
The XC-ES and XC-EI Series come in a very small (29 (W) x 29 (H) x 32 (D) mm) and lightweight package (only 60 g).
High sensitivity and S/N Ratio
The cameras offer high sensitivity (at F1.4: XC-ES50/CE and XC-ES30/CE: 0.3 lx; XC-EI50/CE: 0.1 lx; XC-EI30/CE: 0.2 lx) and
S/N Ratio ( 60 dB).
Infrared capability
XC-EI50/CE and XC-EI30/CE models offer extended sensitivity in near-infrared (650 to 1000 nm) range.
Flexible functions
The XC-ES and XC-EI Series offer many flexible features, such as flexible trigger shutter functions, 2:1 interlace/non-interlace,
frame/field exposure, restart/reset function, readout on command, internal/external (HD/VD, VS) synchronisation, camera settings
that can be made at the rear panel and many more.
Standard interfacing
System integration is easy because of the miniature size, C mount, EIAJ standard 12-pin connector, single cable solution for
signal and power, single DC 12V power supply requirement and low power consumption of only 1.6/1.4 W (1/2 type / 1/3 type).
Rugged construction
The XC-ES and XC-EI Series offer excellent vibration and shock tolerance ( 10G (20 ~ 200 Hz) / 70G ) and a very impressive
125,000 hours MTBF.
