The values in the table are quoted using CDS = correlated double sampling. CDS is a signal-processing technique that improves performance
by minimizing undesirable effects of reset noise.
All typical values are at TA = 25°C.
§ Maximum CCM gain is not ensured.
NOTES:
6. Excess noise factor F is defined as the ratio of noise sigma after multiplication divided by M times the noise sigma before
multiplication, where M is the charge multiplication gain.
7. Dynamic range is – 20 times the logarithm of the noise sigma divided by the saturation-output signal amplitude.
8. Charge-conversion factor is defined as the ratio of output signal to input number of electrons.
9. Signal-response delay time is the time between the falling edge of the SRG2 pulse and the output-signal valid state.
10. Charge transfer efficiency is one minus the charge loss per transfer in the CCD register.
11. Rejection ratio is – 20 times the logarithm of the output referenced to the reset level divided by the 1 V of amplitude change of the
corresponding gate or terminal signal.
