Description of the data path
Block diagrams of the cameras
The following diagrams illustrate the data flow and the bit resolution of
image data after being read from the sensor chip (CCD or CMOS) in the cam-
era. The individual blocks are described in more detail in the following para-
graphs. For sensor data see Chapter Specifications on page 29.
Note

The following drawings are examples of Guppy cameras with
10-bit ADCs.
For cameras with different ADCs see the comments with aster-
isks below (* and **):
* Cameras with 10-bit ADC: 10 bit
Cameras with 12-bit ADC: 12 bit
** e.g. Guppy F-146 (CCD), Guppy F-503 (CMOS)
with activated LUT: 8 bit
without LUT: 12 bit
