Product overview
The Xingkai Technology XK-A120 is a miniature thermal camera for integration into drones, ground FPV vehicles or handheld equipment. Its imaging architecture combines a vanadium oxide uncooled infrared focal plane detector with adjustable-focus optics, producing 640×512 imagery at 50Hz. The camera supports automatic shutter correction as well as automatic, manual and background correction modes. White heat, black heat, sky, red heat and iron red palettes provide alternative ways to display thermal imagery during low-light and nighttime observation.
The camera measures 28 × 28 mm and weighs 55.6g, providing a compact component for installations with limited space. Integration requires a 4.5-18V supply and a video path accepting PAL CVBS analog output; specified power consumption is 1000mw. Lens configurations are 6.8mm and 9mm, with respective horizontal-by-vertical fields of view of 62.9° ×49.9° and 48.9° ×39.1°. Operating temperature extends from -40°C to +80°C, while storage temperature extends from -50°C to +85°C.
