Host Controller and Power Supply for FlexEye S Systems

The HP_S1 is a small size control and power supply card, designed to control the FlexEye S family based applications.

Main features

  • HP_S1 interfaces directly to the FlexEye-S cards and implements the full communication protocol, enabling full control and access to all FlexEye-S features.
  • Controls contents of graphic overlay – can display any information from external modules and controls operational menus.
  • Controls system elements as cooler operation, GPS, compass, GYRO-Accelerometer, motors driver card, camera link card and others, through HW connection and control SW.
  • HP_S1 can be connected to customer proprietary units.
  • Regulated power supplies for FlexEye-S, detector and all other units.
  • Configurable discrete and analog inputs and outputs.
  • Motor control for lens and camera positioning.
  • Optional memory storage.
  • External communication links RS232, RS485/422 and USB 2.0.

Hardware

  • Power supply unit outputs:
    • Adjustable:  -12V, 12V, -2.5V, 7.5V
    • Fixed:  5V, 3.3V
    • Total power of 35W
  • Connectivity: 5 x RS232, RS485/422, 3 x I2C, USB2.0, camera link.
  • I/O: up to 16 discrete GPIO for user switch inputs and discrete outputs.
