@@(assuming a conversion factor of 2.1 electroms/ADU)
œ Rough estimation: 0.96(15+2)x 0.986x 0.903 = 0.31
œ Almost the same efficiency as IRS2

Distribution of relative efficiencies

Ratio of relative efficiencies
œ Relative efficiency is distributed within factor 2
œ Typical wavelength dependency < 10%
