Why Leopard Imaging Chose I-PEX Micro-Coaxial Connectors for Its Camera Modules
Leopard Imaging is a global leader in embedded intelligent vision system design and manufacturing, offering state-of-the-art, AI-based cameras for global companies since 2008. Over the years, its excellence in building artificially intelligent and robust camera solutions has earned Leopard Imaging many certifications, like those for automotive-grade camera manufacturing and aviation-grade camera development.
Leopard Imaging’s cameras address the requirement for high-speed and high-image quality, including solutions with the highest dynamic range vision. They have been adopted for a wide variety of applications, from autonomous vehicles, smart agricultural machinery and cashier-less carts to smart streetlights, robotics and drones. The company is known for camera modules that offer excellent image quality, high frame rates, and the latest image sensor technology.
When Leopard Imaging engineers were searching for the right connectors for their MIPI and USB 3.0 MIPI camera modules, they needed high speed, high bandwidth, excellent signal integrity, high density, small form factor, highly flexible cable, and cost effective components. Since 2017, I-PEX's CABLINE® micro-coaxial connectors have been successfully designed into many Leopard Imaging camera module models, as they address the aforementioned requirements. Leopard Imaging has continued working with I-PEX, not only due to product performance, but the strong technical support they receive and the value realized.
About Leopard Imaging’s Camera Modules
Leopard Imaging offers variety of USB 3.0 MIPI cameras and rolling shutter and global shutter MIPI camera modules that use I-PEX CABLINE®-CA and CABLINE®-UA II connectors.
I-PEX micro-coaxial solutions provide Leopard Imaging camera modules a wide range of cable lengths, especially for customers in industries of robotics, drones, and IoT. Also, micro-coaxial cables are more flexible than regular flex cable, enabling engineers to bend the cable for different testing purposes.
CABLINE®-CA Micro-Coaxial Connector
- 0.4 mm pitch, horizontal mating type
- High-data-rate transfer
- Mechanical locking bar prevents incomplete mating and unintentional un-mating
CABLINE®-UA II Micro-Coaxial Connector
- 0.3 mm pitch, vertical right angle mating type
- High-data-rate transfer, EMI shielding and multiple grounding design
- Slim plug design, suitable for tight space and through hinge applications
