CAMELIACOL 4M Color Digital Camera

5302C–IMAGE–03/04

Camelia Color 4M Camera

CCD Description

Image format: 28.7 mm (V) x 28.7 mm (H)

2048 mm (V) x 2048 mm (H) active pixels

Pixel Geometry: 14 µm (V) x 14 µm (H)

Filter Mosaic (Bayer Pattern):

Note:

The first active pixel of the first active line is blue.

Antiblooming by clocking.

Timing

2 x 2 and 4 x 4 pixel binning can be used to enable previewing modes.

When binning is used, the camera delivers black and white video.

The data rate is (pixel clock): 20 MHz.

Three timing modes are available: 

Continuous

External triggered

Integration time controlled (ITC)

Continuous Timing Mode

The camera delivers frames continuously:

Frame N+1 integration starts as soon as frame N readout is completed (Figure 2).

Integration time is set by the RS-232 interface.
