Notes specific to this mode

1The reset-and-integration cycle is initiated by ExSync being taken low by the user; this has the effect of starting integration as soon as possible at the beginning of the line period

2ExSync must be returned high at least "tSetup" prior to taking it low again to signal the end of the line period

3The user sets integration time "tIntegration" with the software command set

4The user can read data from the CAM/CMOS - 2K.LS while LineValid is high as shown above.
