MARLIN Technical Manual V2.4.0

As already mentioned, the recommended limit for transferring isochronous
image data is 1000q (quadlets) per cycle or 4096 bytes (with 400 Mbit/s of
bandwidth).

The third table shows that a MF-145B2 @ 7.5 fps has to send 1280 pixels or
1 line of video per cycle. The camera thus uses 32 % of available bandwidth.
This allows up to three cameras with these settings to be operated indepen-
dently on the same bus.

Note

L

If the cameras are operated with an external trigger the
maximum trigger frequency may not exceed the highest
continuous frame rate, so preventing frames from being
dropped or corrupted.

IEEE 1394 adapter cards with PCILynx™ chipsets have a
limit of 4000 bytes per cycle.
