The
different
Pike
models
support
different
video
formats,
modes
and
frame
rates.
These
formats
and
modes
are
standardized
in
the
IIDC
(formerly
DCAM)
specification.
Resolutions
smaller
than
the
generic
sensor
resolution
are
generated
from
the
center
of
the
sensor
and
without
binning.
Note
•
The
maximum
frame
rates
can
only
be
achieved
with
shutter
settings
lower
than
1/framerate.
This
means
that
with
default
shutter
time
of
40
ms,
a
camera
will
not
achieve
frame
rates
higher
than
25
frames/s.
In
order
to
achieve
higher
frame
rates,
please
reduce
the
shutter
time
proportionally.
•
The
following
tables
assume
that
bus
speed
is
800
Mbit/
s.
With
lower
bus
speeds
(e.g.
400,
200
or
100
Mbit/s)
not
all
frame
rates
may
be
achieved.

H-binning
means
horizontal
binning.
V-binning
means
vertical
binning.

2
×
binning
means:
2
neighboring
pixels
are
combined.
4
×
binning
means:
4
neighboring
pixels
are
combined.
•
Binning
average
means:
signals
form
adjacent
pixels
are
combined
by
averaging.
•
Binning
increases
signal-to-noise
ratio
(SNR),
but
decreases
resolution.
