ICX424AL

1. Progressive scan mode

In this mode, all pixel signals are output in non-interlace format in 1/60s.

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

high resolution image capturing.

2. Field readout mode

All pixels are readout, 2-line transfer is performed during H blanking period and 2 pixels are added by

horizontal register. (However, guarantees only at the time of a 12MHz drive.)

Image sensor readout mode

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

(1) Progressive scan mode

(2) Field readout mode

3. Center scan mode

This is the center scan mode using the progressive scan method.

The undesired portions are swept by vertical register high-speed transfer, and the picture center portion is

cut out.

There are the mode (120 frames/s) which outputs 222 lines of an output line portion, and the mode

(240 frames/s) which outputs 76 lines.

(3) Center scan mode
