Sensor Modules for Embedded Vision Systems: FSM + FSA
Rapidly evaluate and customize image-sensor hardware - no PCB redesign required.
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.
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.
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:
-
- 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.
Seamless SoC Integration
Connectivity & Platform Support
Plug your FSA output into any major SoC ecosystem
