Predicted WFC3 calibration subsystem countrates have been computed for a number of candidate deuterium (D2) lamps. Based on the calibration system component throughput estimates from Ball, the detector curves from the GSFC Detector Characterization Lab (DCL), and the lamp spectra measured at GSFC, use of any of the lamps in the calibration subsystem should provide sufficient flux to satisfy the CEI specification of 16.7 e-/s/pix in all filters blueward of and including F390N. This report summarizes the various lamps available and provides details of the procedure used for deriving the estimated countrates.
