Measurement conditions

1) In the following measurements, the device drive conditions are at the typical values of the bias and clock

voltage conditions, and the frame readout mode is used.

2) In the following measurements, spot blemishes are excluded and, unless otherwise specified, the optical

black level (OB) is used as the reference for the signal output, which is taken as the value of the Gr/Gb

channel signal output or the R/B channel signal output of the measurement system.

Definition of standard imaging conditions

1) Standard imaging condition I:

for evaluation is not applicable.) Use a testing standard lens with CM500S (t = 1.0mm) as an IR cut filter

and image at F5.6. The luminous intensity to the sensor receiving surface at this point is defined as the

standard sensitivity testing luminous intensity.

2) Standard imaging condition II:

Image a light source (color temperature of 3200K) with a uniformity of brightness within 2% at all angles.

Use a testing standard lens with CM500S (t = 1.0mm) as an IR cut filter. The luminous intensity is adjusted

to the value indicated in each testing item by the lens diaphragm.

3) Standard imaging condition III:

Image a light source (color temperature of 3200K) with a uniformity of brightness within 2% at all angles.

Use a testing standard lens (exit pupil distance –33mm) with CM500S (t = 1.0mm) as an IR cut filter. The

luminous intensity is adjusted to the value indicated in each testing item by the lens diaphragm.

1. G sensitivity, sensitivity comparison

Set to standard imaging condition I. After selecting the electronic shutter mode with a shutter speed of

screen, and substitute the values into the following formulas.

× 100/30 [mV]

2. Saturation signal

Set to standard imaging condition II. After adjusting the luminous intensity to 20 times the intensity with the

average value of the Gr signal output, 150mV, measure the minimum values of the Gr, Gb, R and B signal

outputs.

3. Smear

Set to standard imaging condition II. With the lens diaphragm at F5.6 to F8, first adjust the average value of

the Gr signal output to 150mV. Measure the average values of the Gr signal output, Gb signal output, R

signal output and B signal output (Gra, Gba, Ra, Ba), and then adjust the luminous intensity to 500 times

the intensity with the average value of the Gr signal output, 150mV. After the readout clock is stopped and

the charge drain is executed by the electronic shutter at the respective H blankings, measure the maximum

following formula.
