(2) Other Cautions
a) Do not store CCD in a location where they will be irradiated sunlight, UV and so on.
b) Do not subject these devices to rapid change in temperature that could cause condensation.
c) Do not subject these devices to ionizing radiation, electrostatic fields or discharge, or strong
magnetic fields.
d) If the storage location is humidified with a humidifier in the winter, use water that ha been
brought to a boil.
this is because chlorine and other chemicals dissolved in the water could cause oxidation of the
leads.
e) Store packing containers in a place where they will not be subject to variation, mechanical shock,
or being stacked under other materials or freight.
6)Dust and Contamination
Dust or contamination on the glass surface could deteriorate the output characteristic or cause a scar. In
order to minimize dust or contamination on the glass surface, take the following precautions :
(1) Handle CCD in a clean environment such as a cleaned booth.
Perform all lens assembly and work in a clean room.
(2) Do not touch the glass surface with the finger. If dust or contamination gets on the glass
surface, the following cleaning method is recommended:
• Dust from static electricity should be blown off with an ionized air blower. For anti electrostatic
measure, however, ground all the leads on device before blowing off the dust.
• The contamination on the glass surface should be wiped of with a clean applicator socked in
isopropyl alcohol. Wipe slowly and gently in one directly only.
Frequently replace the applicator and do not use the same applicator to clean more than one
device
