Scientific paper

The newly replaced CCD electronics box (CEB-R) of the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Advanced Camera for Surveys (ACS) features a programmable SIDECAR ASIC manufactured by Teledyne. The CEB-R not only restores the functionality of the ACS Wide Field Camera (WFC), but it allows optimization of the WFC's imaging performance via on-orbit adjustment of CCD bias and clock voltages and serial-data transmission timing. We describe the strategy, preparation, execution, and results of the ACS Optimization Campaign, an unprecedented on-orbit extension of ground-based integration and testing that was conducted during the HST Servicing Mission Observatory Verification period.
