XHC1302-D80B 8 mm Black & White Ultra Low-Light DVP Camera Module
1320 m detection range, 38° HFOV, black & white ultra-low-light DVP camera module.
XHC1302-D80B System Detail
What It Is
The XHC1302-D80B is an ultra low-light DVP digital camera module from Star-Navi's XHC1302 Series, built around a 1/1.8-inch CMOS sensor in a 8 mm, F/1.0 black & white configuration with no outer housing, for direct embedded integration into UAV, FPV, and robotics platforms.
Performance
Under clear-weather test conditions with visibility ≥ 10 km per the US military NVESD standard, the XHC1302-D80B reaches a detection range of 1320 m, a recognition range of 330 m, and an identification range of 200 m. The module covers a 38° horizontal field of view at 8 mm focal length, outputting 1024 × 768 video at 50 fps with 70 dB dynamic range.
Key Technical Features
- 5.4 μm pixel pitch CMOS sensor for high sensitivity in a compact optical format
- DVP / BT.656 digital output in YCbCr 4:2:2 format for direct embedded-processor integration
- Sub-450 mW power draw over a single DC 5 V rail via a 29-pin FPC connector
- Sub-20 ms latency and roughly one-second boot time for real-time FPV and navigation use
Platform Compatibility
The XHC1302-D80B ships as a bare module without outer housing, so OEM integrators handle mechanical mounting, lens protection, and environmental sealing for the target platform. It is intended for long-range detection and counter-UAS EO observation, alongside general UAV payload, robotics, and embedded vision integration.
Compact Ultra Low-Light Optics
A large-aperture lens paired with a large-pixel-pitch CMOS sensor maximises light gathering in a small optical footprint. This combination lets the module resolve scene detail well below the illumination levels typical cameras require.
Direct Digital Video Output
The module outputs digital video directly over a parallel bus in a standard broadcast-style format, without an onboard encoder or compression stage. Host processors can capture and process frames with minimal integration overhead.
Maximum-Sensitivity B/W Imaging
The XHC1302-D80B forgoes colour filtering to maximise light-gathering sensitivity in monochrome. This suits applications where reaching the furthest possible detection range under minimal illumination matters more than colour information.
Minimal SWaP Integration
A small housing-free form factor and low continuous power draw keep the module's size, weight, and power footprint out of the way of the host platform's payload budget. A single FPC connector carries both power and video to simplify wiring.

Designed for the Field
Long-Range Detection and Counter-UAS
The XHC1302-D80B covers long-range detection and counter-UAS EO observation at 8 mm focal length with a 38° field of view.
Narrow-FOV Perimeter Security
Recognition-range performance supports perimeter and security observation tasks alongside the module's primary UAV role.
Embedded OEM Integration
A bare, low-power module design keeps size, weight, and power draw out of the way of the host platform's payload budget.
Long-Range Detection and Counter-UAS
Counter-UAS and long-range perimeter missions need to detect and identify small, fast-moving targets well before they reach a protected area. A wide-FOV lens cannot resolve a small target at the distances these missions require. The XHC1302-D80B's 8 mm lens gives a 38° horizontal field of view, reaching a detection range of 1320 m under standard NVESD test conditions. Its 1024 × 768 CMOS sensor and F/1.0 aperture keep the image usable well after ambient light has dropped below what daylight cameras can use.
- Detection Range 1320 m
- HFOV 38° at 8 mm
- Identification Range 200 m
- Imaging Black & White
Narrow-FOV Perimeter Security
Fixed and mobile counter-UAS installations need long-standoff detection on small, fast-moving targets. Operators need that range to have time to classify and respond before a target closes distance. Recognition range of 330 m lets operators distinguish targets from background clutter well inside the module's full detection envelope. The bare-module design lets integrators pair it with existing gimbals, housings, and processing boards already qualified for the platform.
- Recognition Range 330 m
- Sensor 1/1.8" CMOS, 5.4 μm Pixel
- Output DVP / BT.656, YCbCr 4:2:2
- Weight ≤ 30 g
Embedded OEM Integration
OEM integrators building UAV, FPV, or robotics payloads need a low-light camera core that adds minimal size, weight, and power draw to an already-constrained platform budget. A module that requires a heavy housing or complex power-conditioning stage erodes the payload margin available for other systems. The XHC1302-D80B ships as a bare, housing-free module weighing under 30 g and drawing less than 450 mW over a single DC 5 V rail, with power and BT.656 video carried on one 29-pin FPC connector. Sub-20 ms latency and roughly one-second boot time keep it ready for real-time flight control and navigation use.

Full pin-level signal reference requires a verified corporate account.
DVP / BT.656 Interface
The XHC1302 outputs 1024 × 768 video at 50 fps over an 8-bit DVP parallel bus in BT.656 / YCbCr 4:2:2 format, ready for direct capture by an embedded video processor. A single FPC connector carries video, power, and synchronisation signals together.
