1. Overview
The GMSL2 Camera (Model: SDC800GY-C) is a GMSL2 camera with an automotive-grade FAKRA connector and coaxial LVDS transmission link, designed for ADAS, autonomous driving, industrial vision inspection, and robotics applications. It combines a SmartSens SC855SL sensor with the XC8162 image signal processor and a MAX9295 GMSL2 serializer, delivering switchable 4M/5M/8M video output with more than 100 dB dynamic range over a coaxial LVDS link.
Video is output as YUV (UYVY) through a standard FAKRA male Type-Z connector, so the camera integrates directly with GMSL2 frame grabbers such as the ECFG series and with GMSL2-capable domain controllers — no additional debayering is required on the host.

7. FAQ
Q: What sensor and output format does the SDC800GY-C use?
A: A SmartSens SC855SL sensor with the XC8162 ISP, outputting processed YUV (UYVY) over the GMSL2 link — no debayering load on the host.
Q: Which resolutions and frame rates are supported?
A: Switchable 4M (2560 × 1440), 5M (2560 × 1920) and 8M (3840 × 2160), all at 30 fps.
Q: How does the camera connect to a host?
A: Over a single coaxial FAKRA cable (GMSL2 link, MAX9295 serializer) — compatible with ECFG-series frame grabbers and GMSL2 domain controllers.
Q: What is the operating temperature range?
A: −20 °C to +65 °C (storage: −20 °C to +75 °C).
