10393 is the system board of Elphel NC393 series camera. It is also the core part of the [[Eyesis4Pi_393|Eyesis4Pi 393]], the full-sphere multi-camera system. It has the same physical dimensions as the 10353 (previous generation) and may be used as an upgrade to the previous camera modules.

This camera system board is designed to simultaneously support multiple sensors - both with legacy parallel interface (it is directly compatible with [[10338|10338 Sensor board]] and [[10359|10359 Sensor multiplexer board]]) and with new high-speed serial interface (up to 8 lanes + clock per each port). Sensor ports of the 10393 can be combined to interface larger/higher speed sensors, interface supply voltage is programmable in the range of 1.35V to 2.8V. All the sensor port interface signals are routed directly to the FPGA pads (22 I/O signals on each of the 4 flex cable connectors) , so the same ports can be uses for other purposes, for example to control the motors or interface IMU of the quadcopter.
