Patent ID: 7948519

Claim:
A method for applying a defined light to a light sensitive device, comprising: a) selecting a single occurrence or repetitive occurrence of a light emanating from a light source to illuminate a digital camera module under test (MUT); b) selecting a time varying shape of said light, wherein selecting said time varying shape of said light selects a sequence of data stored in a data memory that controls a digital to analog converter (DAC) to produce a current to control said light source; c) selecting an intensity of said light; d) selecting a color of said light; e) synchronizing said light with a clock of said MUT; f) capturing a digital image of said light with said MUT and coupling said digital image to a tester; g) changing said color if required and repeating steps (d) through (g), else step (h); h) changing said intensity of the light if required and repeating steps (c) through (h), else step (i); i) changing said shape of the light pulse if required and repeating steps (b) through (i), else step (j); j) changing said repetition if required and repeating steps (a) through (g), else step (k); k) ending illumination of said MUT.
