Light Source and Exposure
This model uses an LED for the light source. Light from the LED array board (LEDB) [A] goes to the original
via the light guiding panel [B] and the reflector [C]. Then from the original, the light follows the light path to
the CCD.
The elements in the array are more densely spaced at the ends than at the center, to make sure that enough light
reaches the left and right edges of the original.
The light reflected from the original travels as follows:
LED exposure -> 1
st
mirror [D] -> 2
nd
mirror [E] -> 3
rd
mirror [F] -> 4
th
mirror [G] -> 5
th
mirror [H] -> Lens [I]
-> CCD [J]
