Caspian M12-316-9.6


CaspiznThis Caspian module integrates a fixed lens module and an Arctic 316 variable focus liquid lens in an M12 receptacle (S-mount). The module is built-in with an FPC cable, and can be connected to a standard 1 mm pitch FPC connector. It can therefore be very easily integrated in a standard M12 sensor board. The module is compatible with most imaging sensor formats, from 1/4’’ to 1/1.8’’ diagonal. This module can be driven by the same drivers than the Arctic 316 lens.
