Optimization of SDSU-2 CCD controller hardware and software for CCD mosaics
TL;DR: The San Diego State University Generation 2 CCD controller (SDSU-2) architecture is widely used in both optical and infrared astronomical instruments and allows for more effective observing of sources that have flux gradients across the spectral dimension of the CCD mosaic.
