( 1-6-4 ) SETTING OF PEDESTAL CLAMP TIMING PULSE
Both the start position and pulse width of the Pedestal clamp timing pulse are programmable.It is done using the
[ CLAMP TIMING 2 CONTROL REGISTER ].
This is valid only when [ INCLPTMG : FBCLPTMG1 : FBCLPTMG0 ]-bit is set, causing the internal clamp pulse to be
used for Pedestal clamping ( it is invalid if an external clamp pulse is used ).
To monitor the clamp timing pulse generated by an internal clamp timing circuit, proper setting of the [ EXTMON1 :
EXTMON0 ]-bits of the [ CLAMP TIMING1 CONTROL REGISTER ] is required.

The Start position of the Pedestal clamp timing pulse is set by [ PCLPSTA2 : PCLPSTAT0 ]-bit,and the clamp pulse
width is adjusted by [ PCLPWIDTH3 : PCLPWIDTH0 ]-bit.
* When [ PCLPSTA2 : PCLPSTAT0 ]-bit and [ PCLPWIDTH3 : PCLPWIDTH0 ]-bit are valid,the setting is as follows.

[ PCLPSTAT2 : PCLPSTAT0 ]-bit is used to fine-tune the start position which is set to be 2 clocks later [100 ] as default
value.
Clamp pulse start position changes as follows by [ PCLPSTAT2 : PCLPSTAT0 ]-bit.

Pedestal clamp pulse width is set to its default value of [011] via the [ PCLPWIDTH2 : PCLPWIDTH0 ]-bits =( 32 clocks
= 1.18 micro sec ).
The clamp pulse width is adjusted using the [ PCLPWIDTH3 : PCLPWIDTH0 ]-bit as follows.
