Note 1. The PIXCI® EL1 Imaging Board's capture bandwidth is limited by the computer's PCI Express x1 bus. The capture resolution (AOI) or pixel clock and frame rate must be reduced to allow operation within the limits of the PCI Express x1 bus. (The PCI Express x1 bus has a theoretical bandwidth of 2.5 GBit/sec., and, on most computers, an effective maximum of approximately 200 MByte/sec.)

Note 2. The PIXCI® EC1 Imaging Board's capture bandwidth is limited by the computer's ExpressCard/54 bus. The capture resolution (AOI) or pixel clock and frame rate must be reduced to allow operation within the limits of the ExpressCard/54 bus. (The PCI Express x1 bus has a theoretical bandwidth of 2.5 GBit/sec., and, on most computers, an effective maximum of approximately 200 MByte/sec.)
