Timing Diagram
Full Frame Timing Diagram (Without Memory Zone)
Summation options:
vs = number of vertical summation (vs = 1 to sum 2 lines in the readout register),
hs = number of horizontal summation (hs = 0 to sum 2 pixels in the
φ
S gate, only add the
timing diagram once of figure 10),
vnb and hnb are defined according to the chosen operating mode in “” on page 9.
Note: 1. Cleaning period consists of emptying the image zone of all charges created by ther-
mal generation. To achieve such cleaning, the readout time Treadout defined in the
above diagram shall be used. Nevertheless, it is possible to reduce cleaning time of
the image zone by accumulating several lines in the output register (Figure 7) before
reading out the resulting signal (Figure 9). The number of accumulated lines is limited
by the readout register saturation level.
