Area mode. Description The Piranha ES camera family represent Teledyne DALSA’s latest generation of enhanced sensitivity, TDI based cameras. The Piranha ES family maximizes system throughput and provides the largest number of pixels available in a TDI camera. All cameras are capable of bi-directionality with 64 stages of integration.
Page 7
Sensor The camera uses a bidirectional TDI sensor. The camera can be configured to read out in either Forward or Reverse CCD shift direction. This is controlled by the software command Figure 1: Image Sensor Block Diagram Teledyne DALSA 03-032-20162-00...
