Overview
The DFK 38UX540 is a color industrial camera from The Imaging Source's 38U Series. It uses a Sony IMX540 image sensor delivering 5,320 × 4,600 ( 24.5 MP ) at up to 15 fps over USB 3.1, Power via USB. The table above is transcribed from the manufacturer's published technical data for this exact model.
The Global shutter makes the DFK 38UX540 suitable for moving-object inspection, and the 1.2 inch optical format fits the family's C (CS optional) lens mount. The camera exposes trigger and I/O for hardware-synchronised acquisition, and is rated IP40 (with a suitable lens, a data cable with screw lock, and an I/O trigger cable installed).
Key Benefits
Machine-vision grade sensor with global shutter and industrial triggering. Standard interface (GigE Vision / USB3 Vision) for plug-and-play integration. Compact, sealed housing for OEM mounting. Windows and Linux SDK with GenICam-compliant drivers. C-mount optics for a wide lens choice.
Applications
Automated optical inspection (AOI), electronics and semiconductor inspection, robotics and bin picking, packaging and print verification, medical and life-science imaging, traffic and transport monitoring, and general machine-vision system integration.
