Binning 

Binning provides a way to enhance dynamic range, but at the cost of 
lower resolution. Instead of reading out each individual pixel, binning 

combines charge from neighboring pixels directly on the chip, before 
readout. 

Binning is only used with monochrome CCD Sensors. For reducing 
resolution on color sensors refer to decimation. 

Vertical Binning 

Accumulates vertical pixels. 

 

Figure 30: Illustration of vertical binning 

Horizontal Binning 

Accumulates horizontal pixels. 

 

Figure 31: Illustration of horizontal binning 

2×2 Binning 

A combination of horizontal and vertical binning.
