5.13 - VERTICAL PIXEL SHIFT
Shift Speed (usecs) specifies the time taken to shift charge from one row on the CCD sensor to the next.
Speeds which appear un-bracketed in the drop-down list are guaranteed to meet all the system specifications
and as a general rule we would recommend using the fastest un-bracketed speed for all measurements.
In some instances, using a slightly lower vertical shift speed may result in a slight increase in the single well
capacity for imaging applications.
5.13.2 - Vertical Clock Amplitude Voltage
The Vertical Clock Voltage Amplitude can be used to increase the amplitude of the clock pulses used to
perform row shifts on the CCD. The Normal setting is the default amplitude which has been set at the factory
during the optimization and testing of the camera. The other settings (if available) specify the voltage increase
to be applied to this clock amplitude. In some imaging applications, increasing this voltage can provide a
slightly higher single pixel well capacity at the expense of slightly higher readout noise. Adjustment of this
voltage will not impact the register well capacity and as a general rule, we would recommend leaving this
setting at Normal.
