HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS

•

Static Charge Prevention

CCD image sensors can be easily damaged by static discharge. Before handling, be sure to take the following

protective measures.

— Use non chargeable gloves, clothes or material. Also use conductive shoes.

— When handling directly, use an earth band.

— Install a conductive mat on the floor or working table to prevent generation of static electricity.

— Ionized air is recommended for discharging when handling CCD image sensor.

— For the shipment of mounted substrates, use boxes treated for the prevention of static charges.

•

Soldering

— Make sure the package temperature does not exceed 80

°C.

— Solder dipping in a mounting furnace causes damage to the glass and other defects. Use a grounded 30W

soldering iron and solder each pin in less than 2 seconds. For repairs and and remount, cool sufficiently.

— To dismount an imaging device, do not use a solder suction equipment. When using an electronic

disoldering tool, use a thermal controller of the zero cross on/off type and connect to ground.

•

Dust and Dirt Protection

— Operate in the clean environments (around class 1000 will be appropriate).

— Do not either touch glass plates by hand or have object come in contact with glass surface. Should dirt

stick to a glass surface blow it off with an air blow(for dirt stuck through static electricity ionized air is

recommended).

— Clean with a cotton bud and ethyl alcohol if the glass surface is grease stained. Be caerful not to scratch

the glass.

— Keep in case to protect from dust and dirt. To prevent dew condensation, preheat or precool when moving

to a room with great temperature differences.

— When a protective tape is applied before shipping, just before use remove the tape applied electrostatic

protection. Do not reuse the tape.

•

Do not expose to strong light (sun rays) for long period, color filter are discolored.

•

Exposure to high temperature or humidity will affect the characteristics. accordingly avoid storage or usage in

such conditions.

•

CCD image sensors are precise optical equipment that should not be subject to mechanical shocks.
