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 camera. The indi-
vidual blocks are described in more detail in the following paragraphs. For sen-
sor data see Chapter Specifications on page 27.
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
