UC5181

The UC5181 is designed as an USB camera module of SVGA resolution. It utilizes an advanced CMOS imager sensor as well as a sophisticate USB controller chip to provide excellent picture quality. UC5181 designs for maximum throughput of video image data enables host systems to acquire larger amouts of video information in a more real-time manner. An on-chip proprietary high-performance compression engine capable of a 8:1 compression ratio ensures fast image transfers from the image sensor to the PC. UC5181 supports 8 isochronous interface alternates of up to 7.5Mbps USB transfer rate. A plug and play software driver is provider for windows 98/Me applications.

UC5181 has eleven features. (1)Still picture of 800x600 pixel uncompressed. (2)Video of VGA resolution (640x480), 10-15fps. (3)USB full speed signaling bit rate. (4)USB compliance current consumption. (5)No external power supply. (6)Single board solution. (7)Auto gain, white balance control. (8)Powerful compression software. (9)Lens f=6mm. (10)Twain interface. (11)Hardware snap shot. Those are all the main features.

Some important specifications of UC5181 have been concluded into several points as follow. (1)Its lens would be f 0.6mm, F 1.6. (2)Its focus would be manual adjust. (3)Its board size would be 63x43mm. (4)Its connector would be USB cable. (5)Its power requirement would be DC 5V via USB cable. (6)Its power consumption would be 0.6W. (7)Its array elements would be 800x600. (8)Its pixel size would be 6.2umx6.2um. (9)Its image area would be 4.96x3.72mm. (10)Its min illumination would be less than 5 lux at f1.2 (3000K). (11)Its S/N ratio would be larger than 48dB. (12)Its FPN would be less than 0.03% Vpp. (13)Its dark current would be larger than 0.2nA/cm2. (14)Its dynamic range would be larger than 72dB. And so on. At present we have not got so much information about this IC and we would try hard to get more information about it.
