Functional Description

5.1
A frame is defined as the time it takes to reset every pixel in the
array, integrate the incident light, convert it to digital data and
present it on the digital video port. This is not a concurrent pro-
cess and is characterized in a series of events each needing a
certain amount of time as shown in Figure 18.
The following factors effect frame rate, the:
• frequency of Hclk
• size of the “Scan Window”
• sub sampling mode
• programmed row delay
• programmed frame delay.
The following factors effect exposure but not frame rate
• analog gain
• integration time
• modification of the sensor’s linear response.
This section describes how to program the frame rate and expo-
sure time.

There are two analog gain stages built into the sensor before the
A/D allowing the video and separate color gains to be pro-
grammed.
The video gain is given by:
Where:
The second stage of programable gain consists of three parallel
channels that allows indvidual RGB gains to be set. For mono-
chrome applications all pixels should be routed to the green
channel (G
