Starting Pixel Configuration
All manufacturers produce identical Bayer CFAs, but there are slight differences between the CCDs
produced by different manufacturers. The first line is generally R and G. The camera timing can be
adjusted to start with either G or R by skipping the very first pixels at each line. The majority of
color interpolation software can select between a variety of pixel relations, such as R/G start or G/R
start, as well as G/B start and B/G start. Once the correct scanning is configured, the rest of the
interpolation will be exactly the same. Please contact JAI for further information regarding CCD
manufacturers.

Sync and Data
The individual color data is exactly the same as the pixel data. This means that the timing
relationships of the color cameras are also the same as of the B/W cameras.
For a detailed timing chart, please refer to each B/W camera’s data sheet and manual.
