TEK 2K TK2048


Summary

For details refer to Garry Kitley log book by using test date. Only Amplifier C and B tested so far. 1442AN04-01 is a possible, but has a cross on it, which needs to be washed off. The other amplifiers, A&D, of all chips need to be tested.

Standard setup, found on SSO SUNS at /home/gjk/work/ccd_config/astromed_3200/CCD12_Site2048x2048 was used for all tests.
