VIDEO SIGNAL PATH
The entire video signal path through the Imager Board and
Timing Board is represented in Figure 19. The individual
blocks are discussed in the Imager Board User Manual and
the Timing Board User Manual.
The hardware gain for the entire pre-AFE signal path can
be calculated by multiplying the gains of the individual
stages:
0.96
1.25
0.5
1.25
+
0.75
(eq. 1)
The gain of the hardware signal path is designed so that the
saturation output voltage of the KAI−2093 CCD will not
overload the AFE input. The AFE default PXGA gain is set
at 1.0 (0.0 dB), and the default VGA gain is set to maximize
the dynamic range of the AFE (See Table 9 and
References
).

WARNINGS AND ADVISORIES
When programming the Timing Board, the Imager Board
must be disconnected from the Timing Board before power
is applied. If the imager Board is connected to the Timing
Board during the reprogramming of the Altera PLD, damage
to the Imager Board will occur.
Purchasers of a ON Semiconductor Evaluation Board Kit
