Our Electronics Engineer, Chris Wright, is performing the final tweaks
of the electronics to achieve the fastest possible readout time with minimal
noise.
The CCD alignment and flatness is checked in the CCD lab.
A new style of cold strap is fabricated and tested. This is a critical
component in the thermal path between the liquid Nitrogen in the dewar
and the CCD chip. Without proper heat transfer a target cold temperature
of -120 Celsius cannot be achieved.
