XFCAM1080PHB/D AutoFocus IMX178 IMX185 Microscope Camera

Key Benefits

• Dual sensor options: 5MP Sony IMX178 color or 2MP Sony IMX185 monochrome for high sensitivity and low noise
• 60fps at 1920x1080 over HDMI, 25fps over WiFi for smooth live viewing
• Auto focus with exposure control from 0.03ms to 918ms for fast and precise imaging
• HDMI and WiFi outputs allow connection to monitors, recorders, or mobile devices without a PC
• SD card slot records 1080P 30fps video in ASF format and stills in JPEG at 5M or 2M resolution
• Embedded XCamView and ToupView/ToupLite software support cross-platform operation on Windows, Linux, macOS, and Android
• Onboard controls for exposure, gain, white balance, sharpness, and denoising via USB mouse or WiFi interface

Application Scenarios

• Real-time inspection of PCB solder joints with live HDMI output to a monitor for bench operators
• Documenting micro-assembly processes with 1080P video recording on an SD card for quality audit trails
• Remote collaboration using WiFi streaming to a tablet or laptop during a microscope inspection
• High-sensitivity imaging in low-light conditions with the IMX185 monochrome sensor and 1120mv sensitivity
• Teaching labs using the camera's multi-language interface and freeze/mirror functions for group demonstrations
• Automated inspection workflows where the camera feeds data to a PC via USB2.0 or WiFi without additional hardware

Who It Is For

• Electronics manufacturers performing SMD and BGA inspection with real-time video output
• Quality control teams needing documented evidence of defects with timestamped stills and video
• Teaching laboratories using HDMI or WiFi to project microscope images to a class
• Research labs requiring high-sensitivity monochrome imaging with adjustable exposure and gain
• Jewellery and watchmaking workshops using the camera for detailed documentation of fine components

Problems It Solves

• A fixed camera without autofocus forces manual focus adjustment during inspection, increasing error risk
• Separate HDMI and WiFi outputs require multiple devices or adapters; this camera integrates both
• Low sensitivity sensors fail to capture detail in dimly lit microscope fields; the IMX185 offers 1120mv sensitivity
• No on-board storage means missing data if the PC fails; the SD card records video and stills independently
• Software incompatibility with mobile devices limits remote access; WiFi supports Android, iOS, and Linux

Technical Features

• Dual sensor models: Sony IMX178 (5MP color) and IMX185 (2MP monochrome) with C-mount interface
• HDMI output at 60fps 1920x1080, WiFi output at 25fps 1920x1080 for live viewing
• Auto focus with exposure range from 0.03ms to 918ms for fast response in dynamic lighting
• SD card slot supports 8GB storage for 1080P 30fps video and JPEG stills at 5M or 2M resolution
• USB2.0 interface for control and power; DC12V/1A adapter supplied
• WiFi 802.11n at 150Mbps with 20dBm RF power, supporting up to 6 connected devices
• Embedded XCamView software for USB control; ToupView/ToupLite for WiFi operation on Windows, Linux, macOS, Android
• Onboard controls for exposure, gain, white balance, color adjustment, sharpness, and denoising
• Multi-language interface and cross-platform SDK available for custom integration

Comparison With Other Options

Use Guide

• Connect the camera to a DC12V/1A power adapter before powering on
• Use the USB2.0 port for control and power; do not rely on USB for data transfer only
• For HDMI output, connect to a monitor or recorder using a standard HDMI cable
• For WiFi, pair the camera with a device running ToupView or ToupLite on Windows, Linux, macOS, or Android
• Set exposure and gain values in the camera control panel to optimize image clarity under your lighting
• Use the SD card slot to record video or stills independently of the host system
• Enable auto white balance for consistent color in variable lighting conditions
