*Please note tariff fee is included in price*
Buy Pleora iPORT NTx-U3 (903-0005) external-powered USB3 Vision embedded video interface OEM board set with 12-pin Hirose connector, up to 3 Gbps, low latency, ROI, area/line scan support.
The Pleora iPORT NTx-U3 (903-0005) is an external-powered OEM board set that brings USB3 Vision connectivity to embedded and industrial camera designs. Built around the Cypress FX3 and an Altera Cyclone V FPGA, it packetizes video with low, consistent latency and delivers up to 3 Gbps over USB 3.0 for reliable host-side acquisition.
Designed for machine vision integrators and camera manufacturers, the NTxU3 (9030005) supports area scan and line scan, ROI/windowing, and pixel depths up to 32-bit, with a 120 MHz max pixel clock and flexible tap handling. This variant includes the 12-pin Hirose circular connector (soldered with metal flange) and is supported by Pleora eBUS SDK for fast prototyping and production deployment via a unified API across common vision interfaces.
