2.4 Input Signal

The only control signal that can be input into the L100
is an RS-644 LVDS signal as specified in the Camera Link standard. Section 2.4.1 describes the
function of the ExSync signal.

2.4.1 ExSync: Controls Line Readout and Exposure Time

The ExSync input signal is used to control exposure time and line read out. When the camera is
operating with an ExSync signal, three exposure time control modes are available: edge-
controlled, level-controlled and programmable. For more detailed information on the three modes,
see Section 3.2.
ExSync can be a periodic or non-periodic function. The frequency of the ExSync signal
determines the camera's line rate:
Note that ExSync is edge sensitive and therefore must toggle.
Minimum high time for the ExSync signal is 0.2 µs.
