6.4.4 Asynchronous Programmable Exposure Mode
In Asynchronous Programmable Exposure Mode, when an external trigger is applied, the exposure
starts after one discharge signal (Vsub), which happens after the trigger’s active edge is off. Because
the discharge signal (Vsub) synchronizes with LDV in this mode, there is a maximum one video line of
jitter between the trigger active edges to discharge signals (Vsub) off. In this mode, the exposure time
from 1 video line to 2080 video lines can be controlled through serial communication commands in one
video line steps. In this mode, the minimum exposure time is equal to 1 video line plus overhead: the
maximum exposure time is equal to 2080 video lines plus overhead. Where the specified exposure time
is n video lines, the real exposure time is equal to:

When n=0, the exposure time is minimum exposure time. It is equal to:
When n=2079, the exposure time is maximum exposure time. It is equal to:
When n=2079, the exposure time is maximum exposure time. I
f the exposure time is less than the time
available for one frame, the maximum trigger frequency is equal to 1/1 frame time. If the exposure time is longer
than the time available for one frame, the maximum trigger frequency is equal to 1/exposure time.
than the time available for one frame, the maximum trigger frequency is equal to 1/exposure time.
The minimum active period of the external trigger is 5
μs.
