Detailed Description

A chip (contiguous detector element).

The chip is the mid-level camera structure, being part of an FPA, and consisting of one or more cells (e.g., a CCD). It also contains the concepts metadata appropriate to this level, a summary of analysis tasks that have been performed, status flags, any HDU that corresponds to this level for the file of interest, and astrometric transformations. The astrometric transformations provide transforms between the chip and FPA coordinates and back.
