Scientific paper

The LSST focal plane is the largest and most complex ever proposed for an astronomical instrument. The demands of the science to be done and the nature of the cadence and very wide field preclude the use of any existing imager, so a custom device must be developed. Both CCD and CMOS imagers are being considered. We present several background studies on the size, organization, imager characteristics, and packaging we intend to develop in order to populate and read out this giant imaging focal plane.
