XC-ST50/50CE XC-ST30/30CE are compact, lightweight, black-and-white camera modules that are produced as input devices for image processing using the latest technology. These models inherit the basic functions of the XC-75 (installing a 1/2-inch CCD) and the XC-73 (installing a 1/3-inch CCD), which are used in various types of devices and systems and win popularity in the machine vision field. The XC-ST50/50CE and XC-ST30/30CE provides an external trigger shutter that can catch a high-speed moving subject using an external signal. This enables a still image to be read in arbitrary timing. These two models are compatible with each other, and they can also be used with the XC-75 and XC-73.
The Sony XC‑ST50/50CE and XC‑ST30/30CE are compact, lightweight black‑and‑white camera modules designed for machine‑vision applications. They feature external trigger shutters for high‑speed imaging, internal/external synchronization, and robust shock and vibration resistance.
The manual provides an outline of main features, a detailed specifications comparison, system configuration, connection diagrams, part locations, synchronization conditions, and operating procedures such as electronic shutter and restart‑reset functions.
