PIXCI® Selection Guide

PIXCI® series imaging boards interface to over 1000 different camera models made by over 70 camera manufacturers. Use this guide to check XCAP software's support for your camera; click on the Camera Controls link to view the custom, camera specific, control panels. Or, use the guide to help select a new camera with the characteristics you need! (Last Updated: 15 Feb 2012)

EPIX, Inc. is continually engineering new products and expanding its support for cameras used in research, industry, and other demanding applications. Please contact us if your camera isn't listed.

Note 1. The PIXCI® CL1 Imaging Board's capture bandwidth is limited by the computer's PCI 32 Bit bus. The camera's specified taps (channels) has been reduced to allow operation within the limits of the PCI 32 Bit bus. Alternatively, the capture resolution (AOI) or bits per pixel can be reduced to allow operation within the limits of the PCI 32 Bit bus. (The 32 bit PCI bus has a theoretical bandwidth of 125.88 MByte/sec., and, on most computers, an effective maximum of approximately 100 to 110 MByte/sec.)
