Video formats, modes and bandwidth
The different Pike models support different video formats, modes and frame
rates.
These formats and modes are standardized in the IIDC (formerly DCAM) specifi-
cation.
Resolutions smaller than the generic sensor resolution are generated from the
center of the sensor and without binning.
Note
•
The maximum frame rates can only be achieved with
shutter settings lower than 1/framerate. This means that
with default shutter time of 40 ms, a camera will not
achieve frame rates higher than 25 frames/s. In order to
achieve higher frame rates, please reduce the shutter
time proportionally.
•
The following tables assume that bus speed is
800 Mbit/s. With lower bus speeds (e.g. 400, 200 or 100
Mbit/s) not all frame rates may be achieved.

The following Format_7 tables show default Format_7 modes
without Format_7 mode mapping.

Note
H-binning means horizontal binning.
V-binning means vertical binning.
Full binning (H+V) means horizontal + vertical binning
2 x binning means: 2 neighboring pixels are combined.
4 x binning means: 4 neighboring pixels are combined.
•
Binning average means: signals form adjacent pixels are
combined by averaging.
•
Binning increases signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), but
decreases resolution.
