The Alta-AN is an affordable, versatile analog product family for Semiconductor and Industrial Vision OEMs. This family can acquire from almost any analog cameras on the market, from high speed asynchronous-reset monochrome cameras to super high resolution color HDTV cameras. The Alta frame grabbers are high-quality, flexible, PCI Express bus imaging products, well supported by an easy-to-use SDK, and drivers for most popular software imaging packages. There are three main models in the Alta family: Alta-AN1, Alta-AN2 and Alta-AN4. The Alta-AN1 has one Virtual Frame Grabber (VFG) and can support one analog camera of any type. The Alta-AN2 has two VFGs and support two cameras, and the Alta-AN4 has four VFGs and support four cameras. Each Alta model is a half size x4 PCI Express board (supporting total data rate up to 1.0 GB/S). Each VFG is a completely independent frame grabber. This means that each VFG can be configured for a different camera, different triggering mode, different destination buffer and can be in a different acquisition state than the other VFGs. But most importantly, all of the VFGs on one board can acquire simultaneously, at the cameras full frame rate and resolution.
