Output Video and Camera Control Characteristics

Maximum resolutions of output window: 1280 x 1024, full resolution mode
640 x 512, decimated by 2 mode

Frame rate at resolution (48 MHz)*: 30 fps at 1280 x 1024, full resolution
111 fps at 640 x 480
184 fps at 400 x 400

Output bits per pixel:

8-bit modification: 8 bits

10-bit modification: 10 bits

Pixel rates: 12 MHz, 24 MHz, 48 MHz

Exposure range
(at maximum resolution), ms:
min: 0.03 (at 48 MHz)
max: 131.40 (at 12 MHz)

Pixel gain control: Programmable hardware gain: 48 gain levels from 1 to 15
From 1 to 4 with increment 0.125;
from 4.25 to 8 with increment 0.25;
from 9 to 15 with increment 1

Output window modes: View port (from 1280 x 1024 to 8 x 8 with 2 pixels/2 lines step positioning)
Frame Decimation (1:1, 1:2, 1:4, 1:8)
Horizontal "mirroring", hardware
Vertical "flipping", hardware

Gamma, brightness and contrast control: Programmable with lookup table

* Listed frame rate values at the defined resolutions are not the maximal possible. Increasing of frame rate can be done by reducing the current Exposure value (the lower Exposure the higher frame rate is), hiding the active video window, running the camera on a faster computer, etc.
