MT9P001 – 5.0 MP Camera Module

Description

MT9P001 – 5.0 MP  Camera Module

The MT9P001 – 5.0 MP Camera Module (B0127) is based on the MT9P001 color sensor from ON Semi. The sensor has a 1/2.5″ optical format; the pixel size of 2.2 µm x 2.2. µm results in the 5.0 MP 2592 x 1944 image. This is a rolling shutter sensor, which captures an entire column (or row) simultaneously; the sensor compiles the image by scanning across (or down).

Lens Mounts:

The bundled camera modules include the LS-2718CS lens (NoIR) w/ metal CS mount or the LS-6020 lens (IR/NoIR) w/ plastic M12 mount. They are also available without a lens – just a generic plastic lens mount to protect the sensor during shipping; the lens mount supplied with your lens purchased separately replaces the generic mount. Available separately are higher quality metal M12 or CS lens mount, or a motorized IR cutoff filter mount; for the motorized IR cutoff filter mount, the user must supply the 5-18 V power. Also, see the MT9D111 – 2.0 MP Camera Sensor w/ Autofocus Stock Lens on Adapter Board for an autofocus option.

The key benefit of the standard lens mounts available with this module is the simplicity in swapping the lens – fisheye, wide-angle, telephoto, zoom, IR or NoIR filter – all of which are available from DLSCorp. Click on the Camera Lenses product category for the complete selection of ArduCAM lenses. Be sure to note the compatible lens mount height (7 mm, 10 mm, etc.) for each lens selected if you chose an M12 metal mount option. Each lens purchased separately comes with an appropriate height lens mount (plastic for M12, metal for CS). Click on the Camera Lens Mounts product category for information about lens mounts, including compatibility with the various lenses.

Camera Shields:

The camera module provides a 30-pin flexible flat cable interface, which fits the ArduCAM USB Camera Shield or ArduCAM USB3.0 Camera Shield (or your custom-built interface). ArduCAM supplies a wide variety of camera modules, all are compatible with the USB Camera Shield, and all are available from DLSCorp.
