Hitachi HV-D20
High-performance, multi purpose
1/2 inch C-MOUNT 3CCD Color Camera
(view product catalog in ADOBE PDF)

Features:

C-mount
The camera uses a C mount lens, which is the de facto standard in the industry.

One chip LSI
Hitachi's leading edge processing technology (0.18 μm, internal core 1.8V drive, and 3 million gates) is contained on a single newly
developed ultra LSI chip. The system is compact and consumes very little power.

High picture quality
High resolution and sensitivity are achieved through the use of advanced CCD technology and three 1/2 inch 470,000-pixel CCD's. Together with the 12-bit A/D converter and 14-bit internal processor, a horizontal resolution of 800 TV lines and 62dB signal to noise (S/N) are
obtained with the use of the new digital noise reduction system (DNR). Clear low noise images area obtained even in high gain mode.

6 color independent masking
The user can adjust hue and saturation of the three primary color (R, G, B) and complementary color (Mg, Ye, Cy) independently.

Auto Shading Compensation (ASC)
The ASC function can automatically compensate for color shading errors caused by interaction between the lens and prism assembly in
C-Mount optical systems. Three modes of shading are provided and can be selected according to the cameras application, a color shading
mode, a two-dimensional luminance-shading mode, or a flat shading mode.

Intelligent ALC (Auto Level Control)
Unattended operation under a wide range of illumination levels is possible with the selection of the auto mode from the main menu. The
built-in microprocessor controls the gain (AGC) function, the auto electronic shutter (AES), and auto iris function so the proper video level is maintained over a wide range of light levels.

RS-232C Interface
Control of camera functions and storage of setup data can be performed with the use of a personal computer through the use of the
RS-232C interface.
