Image Sensor Characteristics Measurement Method

• Readout modes

The diagram below shows the output methods for the following two readout modes.

Note) Blacked out portions in the diagram indicate pixels which are not read out.

Output starts from line 1 in high frame rate readout mode.

1. Progressive scan mode

In this mode, all pixel signals are output in non-interlace format in 1/15 s.

All pixel signals within the same exposure period are read out simultaneously, making this mode suitable for

high resolution image capturing.

2. High frame rate readout mode

All effective areas are scanned in approximately 1/60 s by reading out two out of eight lines (1st and 4th lines,

9th and 12th lines, and so on). The vertical resolution is approximately 256 TV-lines.

This readout mode emphasizes processing speed over vertical resolution.
