Description
The PCIe4 DV C-Link (formerly known as the PCIe DV C-Link) provides high resolution image capture for Camera Link™ monochrome and color professional digital cameras, and takes advantage of the increased bandwidth of PCI express to take high performance image acquisition to the next level.

Virtually any Camera Link camera can be used with the PCIe4 DV C-Link, provided the output is within the board and host's bandwidth limitations. Two MDR 26 pin interconnectors (Camera Link standard) are provided, for two base mode cameras or one medium mode camera.

The PCIe4 DV C-Link is a dual channel DMA interface, with up to 220 Megabytes per second capability (subject to host architecture limitations) in a 4-16 lane PCI express slot. Spatial and depth resolution and the number of buffers are limited only by the host memory.
