Linearity and saturation (LW)

At a given integration time, the output signal is linear with the incoming flux up to 6 e/px and saturates above 1.5 e/px. For an integration time longer than 1 sec, the output signal is proportional to the integration time. For a shorter integration time, there is a small variation of the responsivity, which is taken into account in the data processing.
