Physical Interface#
Connectors and Status LED#
FFC Connector#
28-pin flat flex cable (FFC) connector. Provides connections for LVDS image transfer, input and output signals, and power supply. Standardized I²C lines are integrated, which are used for camera configuration via the Basler pylon Camera Software Suite.
Status LED#
Indicates operation:
- LED is blinking slowly: Device is being configured.
- LED is lit permanently: Device is configured and operative.
- LED is blinking rapidly: Internal error.
The LED can be turned off permanently by setting the DeviceIndicatorMode parameter to Inactive.

-
Temperature measured at the temperature measurement point, i.e., at the hottest point on the board. This point is significantly hotter than the other parts on the board.
-
Temperature measured at the temperature measurement point, i.e., at the camera front.
-
All GND pins, including the five shield GND contacts on the opposite side of the connector, must be connected to a common GND plane. Avoid long PCB traces, prefer direct vias.
-
Single camera supply voltage, 5 VDC nominal. Connect all pins.
-
I²C interface address selector. Connect to GND for an I²C slave address of 0x3C. Connect to 3.3 VDC for an I²C slave address of 0x3D.
-
I²C interface data line. A pull-up resistor to 3.3 VDC is required. Refer to the I²C-bus Specification and User Manual for the appropriate resistor value. Note that FFCs can have a significant line capacitance.

I²C interface clock line. A pull-up resistor to 3.3 VDC is required. Refer to the I²C-bus Specification and User Manual for the appropriate resistor value. Note that FFCs can have a significant line capacitance.
-
LVDS input to the camera, mainly as external trigger. No termination resistor is required at the system side. In the pylon API, the input line is designated as Line 3.
-
LVDS output data lane. Use differential routing. A 100 ohm termination resistor is required across the differential pair.
