NOTES: 5. Optical measurements are made using small-angle incident radiation from a light-emitting diode (LED) optical source.
6. The 470 nm input irradiance is supplied by an InGaN light-emitting diode with the following characteristics:
peak wavelength λp = 470 nm, spectral halfwidth Δλ½ = 35 nm, and luminous efficacy = 75 lm/W.
7. The 524 nm input irradiance is supplied by an InGaN light-emitting diode with the following characteristics:
peak wavelength λp = 524 nm, spectral halfwidth Δλ½ = 47 nm, and luminous efficacy = 520 lm/W.
8. The 565 nm input irradiance is supplied by a GaP light-emitting diode with the following characteristics:
peak wavelength λp = 565 nm, spectral halfwidth Δλ½ = 28 nm, and luminous efficacy = 595 lm/W.
9. The 640 nm input irradiance is supplied by a AlInGaP light-emitting diode with the following characteristics:
peak wavelength λp = 640 nm, spectral halfwidth Δλ½ = 17 nm, and luminous efficacy = 155 lm/W.
10. Irradiance responsivity Re is characterized over the range from zero to 5 kHz.
11. Saturation irradiance = (full-scale frequency)/(irradiance responsivity).
12. Illuminance responsivity Rv is calculated from the irradiance responsivity by using the LED luminous efficacy values stated in notes
6, 7, 8, and 9, and using 1 lx = 1 lm/m2.
13. Nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of fO from a straight line between zero and full scale, expressed as a percent of full scale.
