2.6.3.1 Global Shutter Internal Triggering (Non-Overlap Mode)
In Internal non-overlap modes, a new exposure can not start until the previous exposure has been read out.
The exact acquisition sequence depends on the exposure time. The two scenarios are shown in Figure 26
and Figure 27. If the exposure time is less than the time it takes to read out a frame, then the exposure period
occurs between reading out the reference and the signal frames as shown in Figure 26.
In this scenario, the reference frame is read out before the Global Clear is performed. The negative edge of the

transfer charge from all pixels in the sensor. The signal frame is then read out.
