Scientific paper

Standard designs for Dewars and electronics which have been developed for the Palomar Observatory CCD camera are described in detail. The Dewars described have holding times of about 17 to 24 hours. In-operation readout-noise levels of about 8 electrons are achieved for TI 800 x 800 CCDs; tests of these CCDs reveal that, over their range of operation, the amplifiers and A/D converters are linear to better than 0.2 percent.
