- Integrated power design draws all necessary power from the PCIe connector, eliminating the need for an external 6-pin power connector
The PCIe-NPL54 is a cost-effective, fanless, wide-temperature, 4-channel GMSL2 frame grabber designed to meet the growing demand for seamless integration of automotive GMSL2 cameras with x86 systems. As edge AI applications—such as autonomous driving, ADAS, and outdoor AMRs—increasingly rely on robust sensor inputs, the PCIe-NPL54 can deliver exceptional performance, and enable reliable camera integration in demanding environments.
The PCIe-NPL54 is driver-ready for selected automotive GMSL2 cameras, which are a preferred choice for edge AI applications due to their superior performance in outdoor settings. Even under dynamic lighting conditions, these cameras deliver high-quality images with 120–140 dB HDR and LED Flicker Mitigation (LFM), while the ISP on the camera side fine-tunes image settings within a single frame through auto exposure, auto gain control, and auto white balance. Automotive GMSL2 cameras also offer deployment advantages, including a compact footprint and simplified cabling—using a single coaxial cable for both power and signal—secured with FAKRA connectors for robust connectivity. Additionally, their IP67 and IP69K ratings ensure reliable operation in dusty and wet environments.
Built with advanced FPGA technology, the PCIe-NPL54 offers a cost-effective solution with minimal power consumption: under 20W while streaming from four 5MP GMSL2 cameras at 30 FPS. Its low power design enables fanless operation at temperatures up to 70°C. The card's single-slot width and PCIe Gen2 x4 interface ensure compatibility with rugged, space-constrained edge AI platforms. Its integrated power design draws all necessary power from the PCIe connector, eliminating the need for an external 6-pin power connector and streamlining installation.
Engineered for precision and scalability, the PCIe-NPL54 features a GPS PPS input for frame synchronization across multiple PCIe-NPL54 units and LiDAR systems, ensuring accurate data alignment for sensor fusion. A GPS PPS output mirrors the input, enabling daisy-chaining of multiple units from a single GPS PPS source. Additionally, the PCIe-NPL54 features an auto recovery mechanism that automatically restores GMSL2 camera streaming after unexpected disconnections caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD).
The PCIe-NPL54 is a cutting-edge GMSL2 frame grabber designed to empower edge AI applications that rely on x86-based systems, where native MIPI interfaces are typically scarce on Intel and AMD platforms. It redefines the GMSL2 frame grabber category by combining affordability, efficiency, and advanced functionality—making it ideal for both automotive and industrial environments.
