10 Chapter 1: Introduction
Matrox Solios eCL/XCL dual-Base/single-Medium
When in dual-Base mode, Matrox Solios eCL/XCL dual-Base/single-Medium
supports acquisition from up to two Camera Link devices in the Base
configuration. When in single-Medium mode, the board supports one Camera
Link device in the Medium configuration.
Matrox Solios eCL/XCL dual-Base/single-Medium boards are available in two
maximum frequencies. By default, the boards support Camera Link frequencies
of up to 66 MHz. However, a fast Camera Link version is available and supports
Camera Link frequencies of up to 85 MHz.
The Processing FPGA option is only available with the fast Camera Link boards
of Matrox Solios eCL/XCL dual-Base/single-Medium.
