By using a jumper, the master clock, local power supplies, and power-up sequence components can be bypassed. This easy-to-interface evaluation board provides onboard power supplies, generated from 3V to 5.5V, and a master clock.

10.5mm x 12.7mm x 7.14mm package dimensionsįLIR Lepton Camera Breakout Board v2.0 quickly connects all versions of the FLIR Lepton camera module to common platforms like Raspberry Pi or custom hardware.

Longwave infrared, 8µm to 14µm spectral range.Uses standard cell phone-compatible power supplies.Increased scene dynamic range of +400☌ (Lepton 3.5 module only).Integrated digital thermal image processing.FLIR Lepton 3.0 and 3.5 Micro Thermal Camera Modules feature low power consumption, unmatched image quality, and simple integration. While the 3.5 offers the same size, it also provides calibrated radiometric output across the entire 19,200 pixel array.

Both modules feature a CCI (I 2C-like) control port and video over SPI video data interface.

The 3.0 module is non-radiometric, while the 3.5 module has a radiometric thermal imaging system. When inserting it into the breakout board be sure to use proper personal grounding, such as a grounding wrist strap, to prevent damage the module.FLIR Lepton 3.0 and 3.5 Micro Thermal Camera Modules offer 160 x 120 active pixels and <50mK thermal sensitivity in a small 11.8mm x 12.7mm x 7.2mm package. The Lepton® module is extremely sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). Note: This kit comes in two separate parts and will need to be assembled once received. A few things to consider about this kit: the breakout board will accept a 3-5V input and regulate it to what the Lepton® wants, to read an image from the lepton module all you need is an SPI port, and to configure the camera settings you also need an I 2C port, although this is not required. Meanwhile, each breakout board in these kits provides the socket for the Lepton®, power supply’s, 25Mhz Crystal Oscillator, 100 mil header for use in a breadboard or wiring to any host system. The Lepton® LWIR module included in each FLiR Dev Kit acts as a sort of camera and packs a resolution of 80 × 60 pixels into a camera body that is smaller than a dime and captures infrared radiation input in its nominal response wavelength band (from 8 to 14 microns) and outputs a uniform thermal image. All you need to do to get this kit set up, simply attach the Lepton® imager module into the provided breakout, connect the headers, and you will be seeing in full darkness in no time! With this kit you will be able to bring FLiR’s thermal imaging reliability and power to your Arduino, Raspberry Pi, or any ARM based development tool all in an easy to access breadboard friendly package. The FLiR Dev Kit includes a breakout as well as a Lepton® longwave infrared (LWIR) imager.
