Specification

Grade 02

e) Maximum size of clusters (adjacent pixels)

30

f) Blemish pixel deviation from VFLL* under illumination

>10% <45%

g) Blemish pixel deviation from average dark level, measured at dark

>20mV

Notes:

*VFLL is defined as the output signal under broadband quartz tungsten halogen light
with an irradiance of 4.08µW/cm

2

.

1.

All sensors are tested in four output mode – 1x gain.

2.

Blemish variations are measured over an entire frame of data and counted within the
frame boundaries defined by a) and b).

3.

Blemishes are defined as a pixel or group of pixels with an output as defined in f) or
g).

4.

Clusters are defined as a pixel or group of pixel blemishes, and are allowed, provided
they are smaller or equal to the sizes specified in e).

5.

Illuminated blemish analysis done at 70% of VFLL (2.86µW/cm

2

).

6.

Column and row defects not permitted.

7.

Better than grade 02 sensors may be available. Please contact DALSA sales if
interested.
