1.19.2.5.2.4 Erase, exposure and readout
All pixels are light sensitive at the same period of time. The whole pixel core is reset simultaneously and after the
exposure time all pixel values are sampled together on the storage node inside each pixel. The pixel core is read
out line-by-line after exposure.
Note
Exposure and read out cycle is carry-out in serial; that causes that no exposure is possible during read
out.
The step width for the exposure time is 1 us.
Image data is then shifted out line-by-line and transferred to memory.
To calculate the maximum frames per second (FPS
max
) in snapshot mode you will need following formula:
FrameTime = (ImageHeight * (1650 / PixelClock)) + (25 * (1650 / PixelClock))
FPS_max = 1
