Frame Timing Formulas
The constant 113 in the formulas in Table3 is the
constant value in default mode, when 8 dark columns
are read out through Reg0x30. The constant follows
the dark columns read out as shown in Table 4.
Sensor timing is shown above in terms of pixel clock
and master clock cycles (please refer to Figure 7). The
recommended master clock frequency is 27 MHz.
Table 4:
REG 0X30, BIT 1:0
Constant Value
The vertical blanking and total frame time equa-
tions assume that the number of integration rows (bits
11 through 0 of Reg0x09) is less than the number of
active plus blanking rows (Reg0x03 + 1 + Reg0x06 + 1).
Table 5:
Frame Time - Master Clock
If this is not the case, the number of integration rows
must be used instead to determine the frame time, as
shown in Table 5.
