Digital Binning
This process allows you to increase the sensitivity of the Mallincam Camera by
providing you the option of combining sensor cells together to increase the
photon capture area. For example, a 2 x 2 binning will link 4 cells (in a 2 by 2
array) together so you have about 4 times the capture area than one cell. But,
remember nothing is free, it gives up the number of horizontal and vertical pixel
resolution by that same factor. You can have the Mallincam either Avera the
pixels or Add the pixels. The supported Binning available is 1x1, 2x2, 3x3 and 4x4 .
As an added bonus, Digital Binning helps increase sensitivity and reduces noise
to some extent by improving Signal to Noise Ratio.
As a user, you will make a decision as to what level of Digital Binning you will use.
You can use a shorter exposure time to achieve an image, but the image will
cover more space on the chip.
When you select the Digital Binning Tab, it opens up to provide the following
settings.
