BM-500GE / BB-500GE227. Image output7.1. CCD Sensor LayoutThe CCD sensor layout with respect to pixels and lines used in the timing and video full frameread out is shown below.Fig. 15 CCD sensor layoutImportant Note: By using Optical Black (OB) transfer mode, the use can select whether toinclude optical black pixels in the image stream. This is for Horizontal only.7.2. Vertical Binning (BM-500GE only).The binning functions can be used toachieve higher frame rate or highersensitivity. The drawback is lowerresolution.Vertical binning is done by adding thecharge from pixels in adjacent lines in thehorizontal CCD register.Fig.16. BM-500GE binning.Fig. 11 shows the binning principle. Resolution and frame rate for all combinations are shownin the below table.The BM-500GE has ON or OFF function for Vertical Binning:Setting Resolution Frame rateOff (no binning) 2456(h) x 2058(v) pixels 15.05 frames/sec.2:1 binning 2456(h) x 1029(v) pixels 22.88 frames /sec.(1,1)Active Pixel Output2456（H) x 2058(V)L Channel 122824 241 12058OB OBDummy DummyOBOBR channel 1228281616HXsg1Video outNo V binningV binningHXsg1Video outNo V binningV binning
