May 19, 2009JWST Partner's Workshop3 How to Use Subarrays An open question in using the subarray readout mode is whether special calibrations are needed for each subarray location and size or whether data can be extracted from full frame data. For 2-sample (CDS) data, we may recommend taking darks before the exposure –SCAs run from an ASIC may not have the reset anomaly that we see running in buffered mode w/ a Leach controller Reference pixels do not provide any benefit. –Again need to be careful about possible ASIC vs Leach or buffered vs unbuffered mode caveats Flats can be used from full frame data. no ref pix corr ref pix corr

May 19, 2009JWST Partner's Workshop4 Illuminated Subarrays Arrays run simultaneously so LED variations are seen in all. NIRCam will use a subarray or “window” readout mode to extend dynamic range. It may be the principal mode for observing transits by extra-solar planets. A 128x128 subarray was used with four SCAs (two shown here) in our test dewar. Illumination was provided by 2micron LED, and a series of 2-sample ramps were taken.

May 19, 2009JWST Partner's Workshop5 Subarray Flatfielding Gray scale and plot show the result of ratioing subarray to full frame data. Neither image was linearity-corrected. The variations of +/-2% agree with expectations from counting statistics. Full frame flats appear to be fine for use with subarrays.

May 19, 2009JWST Partner's Workshop15 Progress on Wavefront Error Recall that the NIRCam optical train as first realized in the Pathfinder did not meet its wavefront error requirement. Several causes were identified: 1) Mount-induced distortion 2) Coating-induced distortions 3) Poor alignment of lenses within a triplet An improved alignment scheme is helping, and the coating problem has been traced to thermal shock at JDSU. A new bonded mount design is the last improvement.
