Sharp Analog Board Camera – Compact Japanese-Made Color Camera
Build the camera solution that fits your application with this Sharp Analog Board Camera, a compact Japanese-made color camera module designed for CCTV systems, equipment integration, electronics projects, and custom video applications. Delivering over 380 TVL resolution with standard composite video output, this small camera provides a straightforward and dependable platform for applications where you want control over how and where the camera is installed.
Available with either a traditional 3.8mm glass lens or compact 3.7mm pinhole lens, this Sharp Color Board Camera can be selected to match the physical requirements of your project. A third configuration adds a power/video harness with soldered connectors for easier integration. Because the camera operates on regulated 5V power and standard analog video, it can be incorporated into compatible systems without Wi-Fi, network configuration, apps, or cloud services.
Three Camera Configurations
3.8mm Glass Lens
A versatile choice for general camera installations, equipment monitoring, CCTV applications, prototypes, and custom enclosures.
3.7mm Pinhole Lens
The smaller lens opening provides additional flexibility when integrating the camera into compact housings or applications where available lens space is limited.
3.7mm Pinhole Lens with Power/Video Harness & Soldered Connectors
Adds a prepared power and video harness with soldered connectors for projects where a more integration-ready camera configuration is preferred.
Build Around Your Application
A board camera gives you something a finished security camera cannot: control over the final installation. Instead of working around a predetermined housing or mounting system, you can incorporate the compact camera module into compatible equipment, custom enclosures, prototypes, monitoring systems, and other specialized applications.
Its analog composite video output also provides a direct connection to compatible DVRs, monitors, capture devices, and other analog video equipment. There is no network to configure and no cloud service required—the camera simply provides video to the equipment you choose.
