Xcelera-HS PX8
PCI Express x8 Frame Grabbers for HS-Link Interface
Advanced PCIe x8 image acquisition
Building on the field proven technology and performance of Teledyne DALSA’s Xcelera-CL frame
grabbers, the Xcelera-HS 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 involving little intervention from the host CPU. Designed with the requirements of
the machine vision OEMs in mind, the Xcelera-HS PX8 combines HS-Link interface with onboard
preprocessing functions such as shading correction, Bayer decoding etc.
Addressing the emerging needs of bandwidth-hungry machine vision applications, Teledyne
DALSA’s Xcelera HS Series is defining next generation frame grabber capabilities to deliver image
acquisition bandwidth of 1.8GByte/sec and host transfer bandwidth of 2GByte/s over multiple-lane
PCI Express implementations with room to grow.

The Xcelera-HS PX8 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.

The HSLink interface is a new machine vision connectivity interface pioneered by Teledyne DALSA.
HSLink is designed specifically to meet the needs of all machine vision applications and therefore
carries image data, configuration data and low jitter, real time triggering signals over a simple
network topology supporting cameras, intermediate devices and frame grabbers. The interface has
taken the key strengths of Camera Link, and added new features and functions. HSLink delivers
scalable bandwidth of 300 to 6000 Mbytes/s, 1x to 20x configurations while using globally available,
off-the-shelf components.
