Gamma Scientific has brought out the Digital Light Source RS-5-93K for characterising the performance of image sensors and image sensor systems.
The device simplifies focal plane array testing and offers high resolution digital brightness control with near perfect linearity and uniformity.
The light level setting to one part in 65,525 is provided in absolute, Nist-traceable, radiometric and/or photometric units.
The spectral distribution ranges from the UV into the near-infrared, RGB and broadband white, featuring a linearity deviation of less than 0.25 per cent RMS of full scale over the brightness adjustment range.
The RS-5 digital light control system has simple commands and computer controls, allowing it to be easily integrated into new or existing test systems.
The RS-5-93K is configured to mount on the Agilent 93000 image sensor tester, which is ideal for production-line testing of CMOS image sensors.
This system can evaluate image sensors in the wafer stage and test individual sensors after the wafers are diced into single components.
Advanced features include: millisecond-speed light intensity changes and high output stability.
The RS-5-93K works without lamp alignments or the need to replace the lamps.
Quick and easy installation makes the RS-5-93K ideal for a variety of testing and calibration and/or controlled illumination applications.
