Operation

TM-6710/6710CL High-Speed Progressive Scanning CCD Camera

3.3.2 External Synchronization

The TM-6710 can take external H

D

and V

D

for

phase locking. The internal PLL will take external
H

D

and lock with the CCD H

D

. (The CCD H

D

frequency is half of the analog video output H

D

.)

Example: Ext. H

D

= 30.49KHz, V

D

will be 120Hz

and Master Clock will be 50.98MHz.

The internal sync generator will take external V

D

to

generate internal V

D

. External V

D

frequency should be the same as the frame rate.

3.3.3 Asynchronous Reset with Shutter

To activate the asynchronous reset mode, use the Mode control switch on the back panel of the camera
(TM-6710). The asynchronous trigger input (VINIT) is applied to pin #6 of the 12-pin connector (TM-
6710) or pins #9 and #22 of the Camera Link connector (TM-6710CL).

The TM-6710’s asynchronous reset is flexible and takes external H

D

for phase

locking. Applying a VINIT pulse resets the camera’s scanning and purging of
the CCD. When async reset pulse (VINIT) is applied to High state (+5V) with
dial switch select from 1 to 9, the TM-6710’s asynchronous camera discharges
the photo charges into the substrate drain although the camera is still running on
its sync timing and only outputs captured video. When the negative going reset
pulse is applied, the camera will latch the falling edge to its next horizontal
drive and reset vertical sync timing immediately. Then it starts integrating for
the period of shutter control set by either an external pulse width pulse or internal shutter control.
Therefore the horizontal phase will not be interrupted. The TM-6710 asynchronous camera will output
one frame of shuttered video after reset.

There are three modes to control the asynchronous reset and shutter speed:
