Timing

The timing diagram indicates a device with three video outputs.  The device can be fully scanned in 1,190 clock cycles (38 inactive clock cycles plus 1152 clock cycles) to clock out the video. 

In the example, some amount of overscan can be seen. Since this device uses a global shutter, the overscan period will expose the sensor elements for the next readout cycle.

Illumination

A wide variety of illumination techniques and spectrum are available on all of our devices. Custom illumination available upon request.
