# MINI 640-2 integration notes

For the MINI 640-2 imaging version: check the video interfaces, power conditions, lens assembly and engineering documents before evaluating a sample.

**Imaging version.** Video output only, with no temperature data. For temperature measurement, use [MINI 640-2 Radiometric](https://thermal.torsuntech.com/products/mini-640-2-radiometric/)

Technical review: 24 September 2026

Start with the host, then confirm the complete assembly. The MINI 640-2 manual supplies the following reference values; connector, software and sample-scope details still need configuration-specific confirmation.

MINI 640-2 integration notes

| Integration checkpoint | Listed reference | Confirm for your sample |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Video & host | CVBS + USB 2.0 | Plug-and-play on a Windows PC over USB 2.0. Still confirm the connector drawing, output format and timing, support for other hosts, and whether an interface board is required. |
| Control channel | UART / I²C / USB 2.0 | Protocol revision, electrical levels and supported commands for the chosen hardware revision. |
| Power budget | 5 V ±5%; typical ≤ 650 mW with USB output at 25°C. | Startup and peak current, connector polarity and consumption of additional boards or accessories. The typical figure is not a complete system power budget. |
| Mechanical fit | 21 × 21 × 10.3 mm and 9 g, excluding lens. | Full assembly drawing with lens, flange, boards, connectors and cable clearance. |
| Operating conditions | Operating ambient temperature: −40°C to +80°C. | Housing thermal design and the supplier-approved operating limits. |

## Specify the complete order configuration

The 9.1 mm F0.8 option must be specified with the detector and focus arrangement. The manual lists two recommended codes, MINI64009108HNRSAC and MINI64009108HNRSAK, without explaining the final C/K distinction. Ask for the selected order code and its configuration record; do not infer interchangeability.

### Does MINI 640-2 provide calibrated temperature readings?

No. MINI 640-2 is the imaging version: it outputs video only, with no temperature data. For temperature measurement, choose MINI 640-2 Radiometric: a separate 640 × 512 core with two measurement ranges (−20°C to 150°C and 100°C to 650°C), typical accuracy of ±2°C or ±2%, and temperature data over USB, MIPI or DVP.

### Does MINI 640-2 work when plugged into a PC?

Yes. Plug MINI 640-2 into a Windows PC over USB 2.0 and it is ready to use. Windows sees it as a USB camera, with no driver to install; on a laptop with a built-in webcam, disable the built-in camera first. CVBS analog video and UART / I²C control are also listed. For Linux or embedded hosts, or before designing your own wiring, confirm the connector pinout and host support with us.

### How should I read the 60 Hz and NETD figures?

The manual lists a 60 Hz detector frame rate. NETD is separately specified as ≤ 40 mK at 25°C, F/1.0 and 25 Hz. These are different stated conditions: do not assume the NETD figure is validated at 60 Hz or with the 9.1 mm F0.8 lens. Confirm delivered video timing and sensitivity for the chosen configuration.

### Do 9 g and 21 × 21 × 10.3 mm include the lens?

No. Both figures refer to the MINI 640-2 core without the lens. The listed 9.1 mm F0.8 lens and flange weigh 13 g ±1 g. Boards, connectors, cables and mounting hardware depend on the chosen assembly; request its complete drawing and mass before allocating space or payload capacity.
