Introduction

Some embedded devices need broad scene coverage but cannot accommodate a large square camera board or increase the distance between the lens and the target.

This 720P USB camera module combines a D152° wide-angle lens with a compact 38×22mm PCB, allowing a large nearby area to be captured from a relatively limited mounting position.

The BF314A sensor provides 1280×720 at 30fps, while the standard Fixed Focus setup is calibrated around 50cm. Double-sided conformal coating is also specified for the PCB, giving the module an additional protection direction for enclosed or environmentally sensitive device designs.

Applications in Real Devices

Compact Cabinet and Enclosed-Space Cameras

A camera installed inside a cabinet or compact enclosure may sit very close to the area it needs to observe.

The D152° field of view helps capture more of the nearby scene without increasing the internal mounting distance.

Smart Appliance Viewing Devices

Appliances that need a general interior view can benefit from the combination of 720P output and wide-angle optics when broad coverage is more important than concentrating all pixels on one small target.

Embedded Monitoring Equipment

Compact devices may need to observe a wide working area from one fixed camera location.

The H116° horizontal view provides broader coverage than a conventional lens while retaining a more moderate optical direction than an extreme 180°+ configuration.

Narrow-Board USB Devices

The approximately 38×22mm PCB provides a different mechanical option from common 38×38mm camera boards when vertical space is more limited.

Project Evaluation Guide

Consider This Model When

1280×720@30fps is sufficient.
Broad scene coverage is required.
D152° FOV matches the installation geometry.
A 50cm Fixed Focus setup is suitable.
A 38×22mm PCB fits the enclosure.
USB integration is preferred.
Double-sided conformal coating is useful.
A wide-angle lens is required without moving to an extreme 180°+ optical design.

Confirm Before Sampling

Actual camera-to-target distance.
Required scene width.
Smallest target detail that must remain visible.
Whether D152° captures too much surrounding area.
Whether the listed distortion is acceptable.
LED illumination requirements.
Available PCB and lens depth.
USB connector and host compatibility.
Environmental humidity or condensation conditions.
Whether the standard 50cm focus should be adjusted.

Choosing This Model Within the USB Camera Module Series

Choose this model when the project needs wide scene coverage with a narrower PCB and a defined 50cm imaging direction.

Its main selection value is:

D152° Wide Angle + 720P@30fps + 38×22mm PCB + 50cm Fixed Focus

Compared with the D182° SF-SCITBOX-A2-V3.0, this model uses a less extreme wide-angle optical configuration and does not include the same documented heater-wire structure.

Compared with standard 38×38mm USB camera boards, its 38×22mm form factor can be easier to integrate where vertical board space is limited.

Consider this model when D182° extreme coverage, a 20cm focus condition and integrated heater-wire structure are required for refrigerator or cold-compartment integration.

SF-SJF720
Consider this model when D135° coverage and a standard 38×38mm PCB better match the enclosure.

USB and Connector Integration

The 4Pin USB connector, cable direction and host-side USB requirements can be evaluated according to the final system architecture.

SincereFirst Customization

Lens and Scene Coverage

The FOV can be evaluated according to the required scene width, installation distance and target size.

If D152° provides excessive background or makes the target too small, a narrower optical configuration can be considered.

Focus and Working Distance

The standard configuration is focused around 50cm.

Fixed Focus can be adjusted according to the actual target position, required depth of field and usable image-detail range.

LED and Illumination Integration

The drawing includes LED-related structural revisions, including added LED spacing posts and adjusted LED soldering height.

LED position, illumination direction and mechanical relationship with the camera can therefore be evaluated according to the final device lighting design.

PCB and Environmental Protection

PCB dimensions, mounting positions and double-sided conformal coating can be reviewed according to enclosure space, humidity conditions and environmental requirements.

Final configuration should be validated with the actual host platform, enclosure, optics, software, and lighting environment before sampling.

FAQ

When should I choose D152° instead of D135° or D182°?

Choose D152° when D135° does not provide enough coverage but an extreme 180°+ lens would introduce more scene distortion than the project needs.

It provides an intermediate wide-angle direction.

Is this camera suitable for close-range imaging?

The standard focus setting is approximately 50cm.

For substantially shorter working distances, the Fixed Focus position should be reevaluated.

Does the wide-angle lens create distortion?

Yes.

The drawing specifies distortion below 22%.

If the application needs geometric measurement rather than general viewing, distortion should be evaluated carefully.

Why use a 38×22mm PCB instead of a 38×38mm camera?

The narrower PCB can fit enclosures where horizontal room is available but vertical board space is limited.

Mechanical selection should therefore consider board shape, not only total PCB area.

What does the conformal coating provide?

The drawing specifies double-sided conformal coating on the PCB.

It provides additional board protection, but it does not by itself make the complete camera waterproof.

Can the LED structure be customized?

The drawing includes LED spacing and mounting-height revisions, so LED integration can be evaluated according to the project.

The final LED quantity, brightness and control method should be confirmed separately.

Request Project Evaluation

If your device needs a 720P wide-angle USB camera with a narrow PCB format, provide the working distance, required scene width, available board space, environmental conditions and illumination requirements.

SincereFirst can help evaluate whether the standard D152° + 50cm Fixed Focus + 38×22mm configuration fits the project or whether the lens, focus or LED structure should be adjusted.
