We present the results of the spectral line-shape study of the first measurement of the extremely weak (7-0) band of the 12C16O molecule. Measurements were done with a highly sensitive cavity ring-down spectrometer. Collisional narrowing, analyzed in terms of speed-dependent effects, was observed for the first time for transitions with line intensities below 2⋅10-29 cm/molecule at 296 K. We provide a full set of line-shape parameters of the speed-dependent and regular Voigt profile analysis for 14 transitions from P and R branches. Experimental verification of a strong vibrational dependence of the pressure shifting described by the Hartmann model (Hartmann, 2009) is extended up to the sixth overtone highly sensitive to the model parameter.
