Note

• Exposure times entered via the 81Ch register are mir-
rored in the extended register, but not vice versa.
• Longer integration times not only increase sensitivity,
but also may increase some unwanted effects, such as
noise and pixel-to-pixel non-uniformity. Depending on
the application, these effects may limit the longest
usable integration time.
• Changes in this register have immediate effect, even
when the camera is transmitting.
• Extended shutter becomes inactive after writing to a
format/mode/frame rate register.
