(b) ADC = Analog-to-Digital Converter

(c) Dark current is measured with an ROI of 256 x 256 located at the center of the sensor. Dark current will be higher at the periphery due to glow from integrated active circuitry adjacent to the pixel array. Variation from camera to camera should be expected due to sensor manufacturing variability. All measurements were performed in an environmental chamber at 20 °C ambient.

(d) For color cameras, binning greater than 1 x 1 is only available when the camera is operating in unprocessed mode (monochrome).

(e) When Binning at 1 x 1
