Sensor Modules for Embedded Vision Systems: FSM + FSA

Rapidly evaluate and customize image-sensor hardware—no PCB redesign required.
Copy: With our two-board FSM + FSA platform, you get production-grade sensors on a PixelMate™ interface plus power, clocking, and protocol conversion at the edge. Prototype any imager and lens combination on NVIDIA Jetson™, NXP, Xilinx, Raspberry Pi™, and more in hours.

Sensor Modules for Embedded Vision Systems: FSM + FSA

FSM (FRAMOS Sensor Module)

Each FSM board carries a high-performance image sensor (0.4–24 MP rolling or global shutter) on a compact PCB with a PixelMate™ connector. No matter which SoC or adapter you pick, the FSM delivers consistent power distribution, trigger logic, and mechanical stability at the sensor edge.

  • Over 30 Sony Starvis 2, Pregius S, and onsemi imagers (0.4 MP–24 MP) to match your resolution and frame-rate needs.
  • 26.5 × 26.5 mm² board with PixelMate™ connector and interchangeable M12/C-mount options—swap sensors without retooling.
  • On-board power sequencing protects your sensor, while hardware trigger/sync lines support multi-camera alignment.
Modular Sensor Modules for Embedded Vision Systems

Power, clocks, and protocol conversion – where you need it.

FRAMOS Sensor Adapter (FSA)

FSA sits between your FSM and processor, providing per-sensor voltage rails, reference clocks, control logic, and protocol conversion to MIPI CSI-2, LVDS, or SLVS-EC. Extend PixelMate™ over flex-cable or board-to-board, isolate heat, and protect image quality – without ever redesigning your main PCB.

Precision Clock & Voltage Control
Programmable reference clocks and dedicated voltage rails ensure reliable timing and safe startup.
Protocol Conversion to MIPI CSI-2
Hardware conversion from LVDS or SLVS-EC to MIPI CSI-2 for direct connection to Jetson™, i.MX™, Xilinx™, Raspberry Pi™, and more.
Flexible Deployment & Signal Integrity
PixelMate™ links extend up to 150 mm via flex cable or board-to-board connector, with integrated filtering for high-speed signal integrity.
Extended PixelMate™ Reach
PixelMate™ links support up to 150 mm over flex or board-to-board connections with built-in filtering for reliable high-speed data transfer.

Accelerate Your Sensor Prototyping Workflow

From proof-of-concept to performance benchmarking—without the delays.

Prototype Smarter, Iterate Faster

Everything you need to validate image sensors quickly—without redesigning your hardware.

Zero PCB Respins

Swap any of 30+ FSM sensor modules into your existing FSA adapter in seconds—eliminate costly respins.

True Apples-to-Apples Comparisons

Evaluate multiple sensors side by side under identical electrical and environmental conditions to choose the best imager.

Thermal & EMI Isolation

Remote-mount your FSA via flex cable to isolate heat and EMI from the sensor—minimizing noise and artifacts.

Instant Software Integration

Plug in and capture images within minutes using our prebuilt drivers, device-tree overlays, and ISP profiles for Jetson™, i.MX™, Xilinx™, and Raspberry Pi™.

Dynamic Lens & Mount Testing

Rapidly test M12, C/CS, or custom lens mounts and focal lengths without touching your PCB—fine-tune your imaging setup on the fly.

Seamless Scale-Up

Reuse the same PixelMate™-compatible hardware in FSM:GO or OEM camera modules—preserving your validated prototype through production.

Plug your FSM + FSA rig into any embedded processor—no custom cabling required

The right interconnects make all the difference when testing complex vision systems. FRAMOS offers two ready-to-use kit families to bridge your sensor adapter to virtually any development board:

Plug your FSM + FSA rig into any embedded processor—no custom cabling requiredThe right interconnects make all the difference when testing complex vision systems. FRAMOS offers two ready-to-use kit families to bridge your sensor adapter to virtually any development board:
  • These MIPI CSI-2 mezzanine boards sit between your FSA adapter and target processor, providing up to four data lanes, power routing, and mounting hardware. Perfect for Jetson™ TX2/Xavier, NXP i.MX 8M Plus™, AMD/Xilinx UltraScale+ and more, FPA kits eliminate connector headaches and shorten your integration path.
  • Choose from GMSL³ serializers/deserializers, micro-coax harnesses, or flexible flat cables (FFC) to transport high-speed image data over long distances or tight spaces. Each assembly is PixelMate™-compatible and comes with connector retainers, strain reliefs, and full Gordon-rated warranty coverage.
