Abstract: A camera assembly includes a first printed circuit board separated from a second printed circuit board. A flex circuit electrically connects the first printed circuit board to the second printed circuit board. An image sensor is attached to the first printed circuit board and a connector is attached to the second printed circuit board. The image sensor of the camera assembly is mechanically and physically separate from the connector. The first printed circuit board is connected to the second printed circuit board via a flexible circuit. The flexible circuit is elastically moveable between an assembled state and a disassembled state.

Abstract: A vision system includes an image sensor configured to be exposed to a scene during exposure times, a light emitting diode (LED) driver operatively connected to the image sensor, an LED associated with the image sensor and operatively connected to the LED driver, and one or more processing circuits that synchronize pulses of an enable signal to the exposure times of the image sensor so that each pulse of the enable signal overlaps with one of the exposure times. The pulses of the enable signal are used by the LED driver to cause the LED to output light to the scene.
