Mono8; Mono10Packed - Smartek UCC User Manual

5.7.2 Mono8

In an image with the pixel format Mono8 each pixel value P is represented by one byte or 8 bits. The Mono8
pixel format in SMARTEK Vision digital cameras is specified as shown below:
The memory layout of the image with Mono8 pixel format is shown in Figure 54. Starting from the upper left
of the image, byte 0 represents the value of pixel P(1, 1), byte 1 represents the value of pixel P(1, 2) and so
on. In each byte the bitorder is by default little endian; the least significant bit is assigned to bit 0 and the
most significant bit to bit 7.

5.7.3 Mono10Packed

In an image with the pixel format Mono10Packed each two pixel values are represented by three bytes or
24 bits. The Mono10Packed pixel format in SMARTEK Vision digital cameras is specified as shown below:
The memory layout of the image with Mono10Packed pixel format is shown in Figure 55. Starting from the
upper left of the image, byte 0 and first 2 bits of byte 1 represents the value of pixel P(1, 1). Bits 5 and 6
in byte 1 together with all bits from byte 2 represent the value of pixel P(1, 2) and so on. In each byte the
bitorder is by default little endian; the least significant bit is assigned to bit 0 and the most significant bit to
bit 9.
