IRCCD Fence Sensor System.
Abstract:
Assembly and wiring of the first advanced development model, ADM-1, was completed and checked out, and examination of system noise using an electrically inputted CCD was performed. Several dewars were assembled and tested, and a number of cooldown tests using the 1-W split-cycle coolers were performed. Some preliminary system data in the IR imaging mode was obtained and optical focusing of the array was accomplished. Wiring of the ADM-2 sensor unit was completed as was a portion of the mechanical assembly. An eighth system board, the EPROM expansion board, needed for a parameter change in ADMS 2 to 5, was designed, a hand-wired version was assembled and partially tested, and the wiring of the laboratory system was revised to accommodate the EPROM expansion board.
