Notes of Handling
1) Static charge prevention
CCD image sensors are easily damaged by static discharge. Before handling be sure to take the following
protective measures.
a) Either handle bare handed or use non chargeable gloves, clothes or material. Also use conductive shoes.
b) When handling directly use an earth band.
c) Install a conductive mat on the floor or working table to prevent the generation of static electricity.
d) Ionized air is recommended for discharge when handling CCD image sensor.
e) For the shipment of mounted substrates, use boxes treated for prevention of static charges.
2) Soldering
a) Make sure the package temperature does not exceed 80°C.
b) 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 then 2 seconds. For repairs and remount, cool sufficiently.
c) To dismount an imaging device, do not use a solder suction equipment. When using an electric
desoldering tool, ground the controller. For the control system, use a zero cross type.
3) Dust and dirt protection
a) Operate in clean environments.
b) Do not either touch glass plates by hand or have any object come in contact with glass surfaces. Should
dirt stick to a glass surface, blow it off with an air blower. (For dirt stuck through static electricity ionized
air is recommended.)
c) Clean with a cotton bud and ethyl alcohol if the glass surface is grease stained. Be careful not to scratch
the glass.
d) Keep in a case to protect from dust and dirt. To prevent dew condensation, preheat or precool when
moving to a room with great temperature differences.
4) Exposure to high temperatures or humidity will affect the characteristics. Accordingly avoid storage or
usage in such conditions.
6) CCD image sensors are precise optical equipment that should not be subject to mechanical shocks.
