This parameter is expressed in nanoseconds (10-9 s).

It declares the total line duration of the video line. It is the inverse value of the camera line repetition rate declared by the LineRate_Hz parameter.

For area-scan cameras, the line duration is the sum of the horizontal blanking period and the active part of the video line. This is a feature of the video standard the camera may comply to.

For line-scan cameras, the line duration is the minimum time to scan a single line. It is a practical way to characterize the top performance of the camera.
