Infineon Technologies Inc. (FSE code: IFX/OTCQX code: IFNNY), a global semiconductor leader in power systems and the Internet of Things, has teamed up with 3M (NYSE code: MMM) to launch a new 3M for USB3 Vision industrial cameras ™ 5-meter passive metal industrial camera cable assembly 1U30P-TC series. This product is specifically developed for machine vision (MV) cameras, with a maximum data transfer rate of 10Gbps. In modern industrial automation systems, MV systems are crucial for controlling production processes, quality, output, and detecting manufacturing deviations. Brand new 3M ™ USB3 Vision camera 5-meter passive industrial cable integrated with Infineon EZ-USB ™ The FX10 peripheral controller technology, combined with 3M's innovative expertise in the MV cable field, can provide excellent data transmission speed in long-distance transmission scenarios while ensuring no signal attenuation.
3M™ USB3 Vision
Athar Zaidi, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Infineon Technologies' Power Integrated Circuits and Connection Systems, said, "Collaborating with 3M further strengthens Infineon's determination to accelerate digital transformation by promoting the construction of a strong partner ecosystem and technological innovation. Both parties have combined Infineon's expertise in USB peripheral controller solutions with 3M's knowledge in MV cable innovation to develop solutions that can address practical challenges, help manufacturers optimize production lines, improve product quality, and enhance overall efficiency. ”
Tatsunosuke Inami, Global Director of Industrial Electronics Interconnection Products at 3M, said, "With the continuous breakthrough of performance limits in the new generation of semiconductors, the market's demand for reliable and high-speed signal transmission is unprecedentedly high. 3M is committed to providing advanced cable solutions that ensure optimized signal integrity and seamless integration with cutting-edge semiconductor technologies. We hope to deepen our cooperation with Infineon to help accelerate market applications and expand new application scenarios. ”
Infineon EZ-USB ™ The FX10 peripheral controller provides core drivers for 3M's USB3 Vision cables through advanced USB 3.2 PHY technology developed specifically for ultimate performance. This solution has a 28dB insertion loss capability, programmable transmitter optimization function, and advanced receiver equalization function, ensuring the reliability of data transmission even in industrial environments with high electrical noise. The integrated eye diagram monitor can provide real-time signal quality feedback, simplifying the troubleshooting and system verification process. This enables the maximum data transmission rate of this 5-meter passive metal industrial camera cable to reach 10Gbps, making it an ideal solution for high demand MV applications. This cable does not require the use of active repeaters or signal amplifiers, reducing complexity and cost while complying with the USB3 Vision standard.
This extended 5-meter passive cable provides new possibilities for flexible deployment of camera positions in manufacturing environments, while maintaining the high-speed data transmission necessary for real-time MV applications. Its direct application scenarios include quality control systems, automated production lines, deployment of smart factories, and MV systems in harsh industrial environments such as automotive manufacturing, electronic product production, food processing, and pharmaceuticals.
