Axion-CL Frame Grabber
Description
BitFlow has been making Camera Link frame grabbers since 1999. With each successive generation of frame grabbers, BitFlow has improved the quality, flexibility, and robustness of their interfaces. Meanwhile, much has changed on the backend; PCI to PCIe, Gen 1 to Gen 2, etc. The Camera Link Specification has also been continuously evolving: 80-bit (10-tap) mode was added, Power over Camera Link (PoCL), new connectors, new tap formats. Even though the specification has been around a long time, it is still one of the simplest, efficient, and least expensive ways to get camera data into a computer. It also benefits from hundreds of thousands of pieces of CL equipment sold worldwide. BitFlow has been on top of all these changes and has continuously improved and updated their Camera Link frame grabbers. The Axion-CL, the most powerful CL frame grabber BitFlow has ever manufactured, is the culmination of all of these improvements The Axion-CL also benefits from other products in BitFlow's line up. The Axion-CL uses the Cyton-CXP's backend: the StreamSync DMA engine and buffer manager, as well as a brand new PCIe Gen 2 interface, with DMA optimized for modern (fully loaded, fully busy) computers.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Axion-CL offers efficient support for variable sized images, fast context switches between frames, per frame control of acquisition properties, and hardware control of image sequencing. It also has enhanced debug capabilities, efficient support for on-demand buffer allocation, and graceful recovery from dropped packets.
Camera Link is a specification for transmitting data from digital cameras to a computer. It is still relevant because it is one of the simplest, efficient, and least expensive ways to get camera data into a computer. It also benefits from hundreds of thousands of pieces of CL equipment sold worldwide.
The Axion-CL is a Camera Link frame grabber manufactured by BitFlow, which is the most powerful CL frame grabber they have ever made.
The Axion-CL uses BitFlow's brand new PCIe Gen 2.0 platform, which was first designed for the Cyton-CXP. It has a DMA optimized for modern computers that are fully loaded and fully busy.
The Axion-CL benefits from the Cyton-CXP's backend, which includes the StreamSync DMA engine and buffer manager. It also uses a brand new PCIe Gen 2 interface.
