Overview
The Hitachi HV-F31F/HV-F22F are high precision 3CCD progressive scan color camera, which has
single chip digital processing LSI, a C mount prism, three 1/3-inch 800,000 pixels (HV-F31F) / 1/2-inch
1,450,000 pixels (HV-F22F) square CCDs , and an IEEE1394 digital output.
A newly developed multi-functional LSI use the accurate 14 bit digital processing technology, which
performs the high picture quality signal processing and the picture compensating functions, beyond the
capability of the other conventional analog cameras. The IEEE1394 interface reduces the system cost
without an image capturing board and special connecting cable.
Features
• Camera signal processor is single chip LSI.
The Hitachi’s most advanced technology (0.18 um design process, 1.8V internal core drive voltage)
produces a single newly developed ultra LSI chip (3 million gates), and contributes to the downsizing
and the low power of the camera. In addition, the 12-bit A/D converter and 14 bit internal processor
provide high S/N and wide dynamic range.
• High quality picture
Excellent color reappearance and high definition are materialized by CCD with a high sensitivity micro
lens and LSI signal processing technology.
• 6 vector masking
Independent six colors masking is the Hitachi innovation for optimizing color balance. The saturation
and the hue of 6 colors (Red, blue, green, cyan, magenta and yellow) are adjusted independently to
deliver the best color in image capture, microscope and other applications.
• Auto white shading compensation
Color shading due to the aberration of C mount lens is automatically compensated (reduced).
