# Transcend ECM300M22 Embedded Camera Module **Summary** The Transcend ECM300M22 is an industrial embedded camera module designed for vision-based systems that require compact size, reliable low-light imaging, and low power consumption. It uses a Sony IMX675 CMOS sensor with STARVIS 2 technology to deliver 5 MP image capture and improved image quality in challenging lighting conditions. The module supports MIPI CSI-2 through a 22-pin connector, making it suitable for embedded platforms and edge AI devices. Typical use cases include industrial inspection, robotics, and embedded vision systems operating in variable or low-light environments. ## Key Features - 5 MP imaging based on Sony IMX675 sensor - STARVIS 2 technology for improved low-light performance - Near-infrared enhancement for low-light and IR-assisted use - Integrated HDR for high-contrast scenes - 140° wide field of view - MIPI CSI-2 interface with 22-pin connector - Low power consumption at approximately 0.55 W - Operating temperature range from -30°C to 70°C ## Description The ECM300M22 is a compact MIPI camera module built for embedded applications where image quality, integration flexibility, and environmental durability are important. It combines a 5 MP Sony sensor with back-side illumination and STARVIS 2 imaging technology to improve sensitivity, reduce noise, and maintain image clarity in low-light conditions. The module also includes HDR capability, which helps produce more balanced images in scenes with strong contrast between dark and bright areas. Near-infrared enhancement further improves performance in low-light or IR-assisted environments, making the camera suitable for vision systems that must operate beyond standard visible-light conditions. For system integration, the ECM300M22 uses a MIPI CSI-2 interface and a 22-pin connector. A flexible ribbon cable is included to simplify integration into embedded platforms. The product also supports driver-level image parameter customization and ISP tuning tools, allowing image output to be adjusted for different environments and application requirements. Its compact mechanical design and low power demand make it suitable for space-constrained and power-sensitive systems, while the industrial temperature range supports deployment in demanding operating environments. ## Technical Specifications - Dimensions: 38 mm x 38 mm x 19.92 mm - Bus Interface: MIPI CSI-2 - Connector: 22 pin - CMOS Sensor: Sony IMX675 - Resolution: 2592 x 1977 (5 MP) - Pixel Size: 2 µm x 2 µm - Lens Field of View: 140° / 117° / 90° - Illumination Type: Back Side Illumination (BSI) - ADC Resolution: 12-bit - Optical Format: 1/2.8 inch - Shutter Type: Rolling shutter - Chromaticity: Color - Maximum Frame Rate: Full size at 60 fps - Operating Voltage: 3.3 V - Power Consumption: 0.55 W - Operating Temperature: -30°C to 70°C - Storage Temperature: -40°C to 85°C - Warranty: Three-year limited warranty ## Applications - AI edge computing systems - Industrial inspection equipment - Robotics and machine vision - Embedded vision platforms - Low-light monitoring and IR-assisted imaging systems ## Key Benefits - Delivers clear imaging in low-light environments - Supports embedded integration through standard MIPI CSI-2 - Reduces system power demand with low operating consumption - Improves usability in mixed-light scenes through HDR support - Enables application-specific image tuning with ISP tools ## Notes for Integration / Design - Confirm platform compatibility for the 22-pin MIPI CSI-2 connector before design-in. - Rolling shutter behavior should be evaluated for applications with fast motion. - NIR enhancement can improve performance in IR-assisted environments, but lens and system-level optical design should also be reviewed. - ISP tuning and driver-level image adjustments may be required to achieve optimal results in the final application. - For demanding industrial deployments, compatibility testing is recommended due to variation across embedded platforms and use cases. ## Keywords embedded camera module, MIPI CSI-2 camera, Sony IMX675, STARVIS 2 camera, industrial vision camera, low-light camera module, AI edge vision, embedded imaging, robotics camera, industrial inspection camera
