LVAL 

(Line Valid signal)

 

This signal show the period during which the line part of the image data from 
FL-400 is in effect.   
This is “ON” when during the period the line is active. 

FVAL 

(Frame Valid signal) 

This signal shows the period during which the vertical part of the image data from 
FL-400 is in effect. This is “ON” during the period the frame is active. 

D0_0 to D4_15

 

(Digital image data) 

This is the image signal data from FL-400 converted A/D.   
”D0 to D4” has 16 bit data in each. MSB shows the most significant bit.     
Please see 14-4-2 [OUTPUT TIMING SPECIFICATIONS] for details.
