Previous: Dewar
The detector arrays consists of (8) 2048 x 4096 pixel CCDs, arranged
in a 2 x 4 array, to give a square detector area of 8192 pixels by
8192 pixels. The individual CCDs are three-side buttable.
- CCD and array flatness requirements:
15 microns over the entire focal surface (goal)
40 microns P-V over each detector (SITe specification)
- Gap requirements:
short side gap req.: < 0.5 mm
long side gap req.: < 0.5 mm
- Read noise requirements:
2 e- goal (at XXX kpix/sec TBD)
4 e- required (at XXX kpix/sec TBD)
- Dark current requirements:
<3 elec/pix/hr at -100C (SITe specification)
- Spurious charge injection requirements:
TBD
- Fringing requirements:
less than 1% (goal) at 0.9 microns
less than 3% (req.) at 0.9 microns
- Anti-reflection coatings:
TBD
