Overview and Applications
The National Instruments PCIe-1430 image acquisition board works with
up to two base configuration Camera Link cameras and is used by
machine and scientific imaging developers who need high-throughput
digital imaging at a lower cost.
Camera Link
Camera Link is an industrial high-speed serial data and cabling standard
developed by National Instruments, camera vendors, and other image
acquisition companies. Created for easy connectivity between the PC
and the camera, Camera Link provides simple, flexible cabling for highspeed, high-resolution digital cameras. A Camera Link cable, a slender
26-pin cable with 24-bit data and clock, enables as well as controls
signals. You can control camera functionality by asynchronous serial
control or LVDS differential lines through a Camera Link cable. Camera
Link offers future data rate capabilities up to 2.3 Gb/s. You can
interchange Camera Link digital cameras from a variety of vendors with
Camera Link image acquisition hardware.
Digital I/O
Each NI PCIe-1430 includes one trigger line and two Camera Link
connectors that work with any base configuration Camera Link camera.
Additional I/O lines for advanced triggering, pulse-train outputs, and
Figure 1. Camera Link is a popular interface for high-resolution and high-speed cameras.
isolated digital I/O also are available with the NI Camera Link I/O
Extension Board. Use the serial interface on the Camera Link connector
to easily configure and control the camera with NI Vision Acquisition
software and Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) configuration
software. With this board, you can use the advanced triggering available
to send strobe pulses and pulse trains.
PCI Express
With the four-lane PCI Express configuration of the NI PCIe-1430, you
can acquire from two base configuration Camera Link cameras at their
maximum bandwidths without onboard memory. This data is streamed
directly to PC memory so it can be processed along with synchronized
data acquisition and/or motion.

Synchronize Vision, Data Acquisition,
and Motion
Ordering Information
Using the RTSI bus, you can develop applications for which vision, data
acquisition, and motion are tightly integrated. With the NI PCIe-1430,
you can route digital timing lines such as acquisition in progress or
frame start across the RTSI bus to control the timing of your machine
vision application.
Includes Vision Acquisition software.
Camera Compatibility
The NI PCIe-1430 works with base configuration Camera Link cameras
from Sony, Basler, and other camera manufacturers. Visit
