There is no limit to the number of pixels that can be compensated. As L channel and R channel
images are composed as one image inside the camera, there is also no limitation on L channel and
R channel compensation.
When the leftmost pixel has blemish, it cannot be compensated because there is no data for
compensation.
When two or more consecutive pixels have blemishes, the leftmost pixel with a blemish is
compensated by the left normal pixel data and the second pixel is then compensated by the left
pixel which is already compensated.
The default setting is Disable.
6.3.2. Gain and Channel Balance
The AM-1600CL/AB-1600CL has a dual-tap readout architecture, with Left (L) and Right (R)
channels. In order to achieve the same gain and black level for both channels, the AM-1600CL/AB-
1600CL has independent control for L channel and R channel gain and offset.
In order to balance both channels, the balancing uses L channel as the reference and R channel is
adjusted so as to have the same level as that of L channel for both gain and offset.
6.3.3. Flat Field Correction (Pixel non-uniformity) (AM-1600CL only)
The flat field correction function can compensate different gain and offset on each pixel. It is
possible to use offset only (black-level correction) or offset and gain corrections in sequence.
6.3.4. Programmable Look-Up Table (LUT) (AM-1600CL only)
AM-1600CL has a programmable look-up table (LUT) that lets the user adjust the gamma
characteristics of the video output by adding “knees” or otherwise adjusting points along the
video response graph.
6.3.5. Test pattern generator
The AM-1600CL and AB-1600CL cameras have the following test pattern generators. While the test
pattern is selected, the video output is disabled. This function does not depend on the setting of
gain and offset. This function can be set by command but the setting is not stored in the memory.
1. Horizontal Ramp
2. Vertical Ramp
3. Horizontal and Vertical Ramp
