Computar - VL1624S-MPZ - LensConnect 20 Megapixel 1" 16mm Lens F2.4 I2C Interface (C-Mount)

Product Overview

The Computar VL1624S-MPZ is a high-resolution LensConnect motorized C-mount lens for 20-megapixel industrial imaging. Its 16mm focal length provides a standard-to-narrow field of view for inspection tasks that require tighter framing and fine-detail capture without repositioning the camera.

Key Configuration

20MP optical resolution; C-mount lens; 16mm focal length; S-series I2C control interface; 4-wire SDA, SCL, GND, 5V connection; motorized focus; motorized P-Iris; high-repeatability stepper motors; floating focus design; focus range from 0.1m to infinity.

Key Features

• Motorized focus and iris support precise remote adjustment through host-side control.
• I2C interface enables direct integration with a microcontroller, FPGA, or camera processing board.
• 16mm focal length provides tighter framing for detailed industrial inspection tasks.
• Floating focus technology helps preserve 20MP image quality from center to edge across the focus range.
• Compact, vibration-resistant construction supports factory automation and robotic vision environments.

Technical Context

The lens uses stepper-driven optical control for repeatable focus and iris presets, making it suitable for automated lines with changing product heights or inspection distances. P-Iris control allows the host system to command precise aperture positions for balancing contrast, sharpness, and depth of field.

Installation Notes

The 4-wire I2C interface is intended for embedded camera systems where optics are controlled directly by onboard hardware. Its compact build and vibration-resistant design make it suitable for machine vision assemblies, smart cameras, and robotic inspection equipment.
