Basler BCON for LVDS Interface: Camera Link’s Little Brother

Basler offers both Camera Link cameras and board level cameras with BCON - Basler’s new LVDS based interface for embedded vision applications. Some people might notice the similarities of these data transmission technology and their protocols. This Product Insight provides a succinct comparison of these two interfaces. It will show that BCON has inherited many of Camera Link’s characteristics. However, it is slightly different where technologically reasonable, especially for the utilization in embedded systems. That’s why engineers who have experience with Camera Link will feel at ease when applying this new interface.
