1.19.1.4.3 CCD Timing
1.19.1.4.3.1 Timings
Note
In partial scan mode (readout window ysize < 1024 lines).
To calculate the maximum frames per second (FPS
max
) you will need following formula (Expose mode: No overlap):
1.19.1.4.3.2 Example: Frame rate as function of lines & exposure time Now, when we insert the values using
exposure time of, for example, 8000 us, 1024 lines and 56MHz pixel clock (Expose mode: No overlap):

To find out how to achieve any defined freq. below or equal to the achievable max. freq., please have a look
at Achieve a defined image frequency (HRTC) (p. 164).
1.19.1.4.4 Reprogramming CCD Timing
Reprogramming the CCD Controller will happen when the following changes occur
• Changing the exposure time
• Changing the capture window
• Changing Trigger Modes
Reprogram time consists of two phases
1. Time needed to send data to the CCD controller depending on what is changed exposure : abt 2..3ms
window: abt 4..6ms trigger mode: from 5..90ms, varies with oldmode/newmode combination
2. Time to initialize (erase) the CCD chip after reprogramming this is fixed, abt 4.5 ms
So for example when reprogramming the capture window you will need (average values)
t
regprog
= change_window + init_ccd
t
regprog
= 5ms + 4.5ms
t
regprog
= 9.5ms
