Sony FCB camera block
FCB-ER9500, as SONY’s first 4K 60-frame integrated camera module, has excellent image capture and output capabilities. It supports 4K ultra HD resolution and can achieve a frame rate of 60 frames per second at 4K resolution, which makes it have a higher frame rate when capturing and displaying dynamic images, thus providing a more natural and smooth video picture.
Can it be paired with a 4K HDMI interface board?
For 4K60 frame SONY FCB-ER9500 can be combined with 4K HDMI interface board output image? Regarding this issue, since the FCB-ER9500 was officially fully listed in August 2024, more and more users have been consulted. Here, Danny Wong, senior engineer of Xanzhan Technology, makes a unified reply for everyone.
01 can be paired with a 4K HDMI interface board
The SONY FCB-ER9500 can be used with a 4K HDMI interface board, but it cannot output images directly like the SONY FCB-ES8230 and FCB-ER8530, and requires special processing to output images normally.
Unlike SONY FCB-ES8230 and FCB-ER8530, the FCB-ER9500 4K ultra HD integrated camera module itself does not have a 5V level output, and the HDMI interface of the 4K HDMI interface board is connected to the display device, and this 5V level is required to output images. Therefore, only a 5V level can be added to the 4K HDMI interface board to help the FCB-ER9500 output images normally, and the SONY FCB-EW9500H also needs to do the same processing.
Therefore, in order to solve this problem, the company has designed a new version of the 4K HDMI interface board for 4K UHD integrated camera modules without 5V level output (including FCB-EW9500H and FCB-ER9500) to help them output images normally.
Therefore, when the user buys the 4K HDMI interface board separately, he must explain to us which model of camera it is used in, otherwise it may not be able to output the image normally.
02 Maximum output 2160P30 image format
Due to the design limitations of the 4K HDMI interface board, the maximum support for 2160P30 image format output, even with the 4K60P FCB-ER9500, it can not output 2160P50 and 2160P60 image formats.
Output 2160P60 solution
In order to cooperate with the SONY FCB-ER9500 to achieve 2160P60 image output and transmission, the company has developed relevant technical solutions, including 12G-SDI interface board and 4K-IP interface board.
01 12G-SDI interface board
12G-SDI interface board, available for sale.
The 12G-SDI interface board is specially designed for SONY FCB-ER9500, which can help it output 4K60P 12G-SDI UHD lossless video signal. At the same time, it can also realize image processing, video capture, conversion and transmission for other 4K ultra HD cameras, support 12G-SDI and HDMI video signal synchronous output, support 485 control and OSD menu, support external keys to achieve zoom, focus, gain, white balance and other functions, and automatically identify PELCO-D/P protocol. Unique power memory, preset bit, automatic cruise and other functions.
Used in UAV, video conferencing, medical equipment, image detection equipment and other fields.
02 4K-IP interface board
4K-IP interface board, coming soon.
4K-IP interface board, connected to SONY FCB-ER9500 through LVDS interface, can output 2160P60 ultra HD video format through HDMI and network port simultaneously. More detailed parameters are subject to the final release.
