Making Opensource USB C industrial camera with Interchangeable C mount lens, Interchangeable MIPI Sensor with Lattice Crosslink NX FPGA and Cypress FX3 USB 3.0 controller

     This post is going yet another part in the DIY camera projects which have been doing since quite some time. In this post I will showing you next successful implementation of making C mount high lens mount  USB C camera. This implementation will have absolute modular boards having dedicated Sensor board which can be changed if needed.

USB 3.0 Camera board with Cypress FX3 CYUSB3014 and Lattice FPGA CrossLink NX LIFCL-40 Prototype

  From quite some time i have been working with different MIPI CSI Camera Solutions , Interfacing Camera with FPGA and Connecting to USB 3.0 Connection. 

Board will be having USB C connector for USB 3.0 5Gbps Connection with Cypress FX3 CYUSB3014 and Lattice Crosslink FPGA

Board With Direct Raspberry PI IMX219 

Board with FCP Connector for Any MIPI Camera With 1mm Flex cable

Agilent Keysight 53220A Universal Frequency Counter Option 010 Ultra High Stability OCXO Timebase Upgrade

 I have previously upgraded Timebase for Agilent/HP 53132A Universal frequency counter and also PM66xx Counter. This time i will be upgrading Keysight 53220A.

This upgrade is going to be little different as keysight 53220A does not have a oscillator module. OCXO is directly soldered to the main board. So this upgrade is just going to be desoldring existing TCXO and mounting correct OCXO to have Option 010 Ultra High Stability OCXO Timebase activated. 





DIY Fluke Philips PM66xx OCXO 10MHz Oven Oscillator option board for PM6680B PM6681

 Quite a while ago I had written about how I upgraded oscillator of my Agilent/HP 53132A. I have recently bought a broken Fluke/Philips PM6680B Frequency counter. Though i was able to quickly fixed issues with the unit by replacing power supply capacitors, the unit still has really crappy original reference oscillator. So I decided to make my own PM9692 Ultra High Stability Oven Time Base with CTS 196 OCXO.
