Orion USB3 Evaluation Kit
3 Operating Instructions
The kit is factory adjusted and operational when received. This section lists recommended
equipment, basic operational instructions, include signal voltage level requirements, options that
are factory selected but that are easily modified by the user.

3.2 Resolution / Fame rate and ADC gain settings
The chip has the capability of increasing the output Line Rate by reducing the ADC resolution. For
each ADC resolution there is different Gains.
For 13 bits resolution, it is possible to achieve 20KHz, with integration time defined as 40us.
Table 2 exemplifies, for instance, the recommended ADC gain configuration for resolution 13 bits,
12 bits and 11 bits.
