Abstract

The invention discloses a method for using a device for detecting the performance of an image sensor, belonging to the field of optical imaging. The method steps are as follows: the interface on the right side of the device is connected to the interface on the left side of the external frame of the image sensor to form a closed space free from external interference; Diffraction occurs behind the diffraction screen of the hole, and the diffracted light is focused to the pixel surface of the image sensor through the converging lens to form a diffraction pattern, and finally the adjustable ring is adjusted to focus the diffraction pattern. Through the light intensity information of the calibrated diffraction spots, various performance parameters of the image sensor can be quantitatively obtained. It overcomes the shortcomings of traditional testing and comparison methods such as time-consuming, cumbersome operations, complex scenes, and difficult analysis, and provides a miniaturized, portable image sensor that is free from external interference, intuitive, concise, fast, and has qualitative and quantitative functions. Device and method for performance testing and comparison.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of optical imaging, in particular to a method for using a device for detecting the performance of an image sensor. Background technique [0002] An image sensor, also known as a camera, is a device that converts photon signals into analog or digital signals, and finally displays the data in the form of images or spectra. To evaluate the quality of a camera, many basic performance parameters need to be considered, including readout noise, absolute sensitivity threshold of photoresponse, full well capacity, dynamic range, signal-to-noise ratio, etc. EMVA1288 is a standard test method issued by the European Machine Vision Association for measuring the basic performance parameters of these image sensors - in a rigorous test environment (completely shielded from external light, a uniform monochromatic light source generated by an integrating sphere, fixed image sensors so that An optical platform that is strictly orthogon...
