Read noise units correction #15

Closed mwregan2 closed 4 years ago

mwregan2 commented 4 years ago

The Readnoise in the CDP file is the corrleated double sample noise. This is the noise in the difference of two samples. It is a factor of a sqrt(2) higher than the single sample noise. The change is just to divide the CDP read noise by the sqrt(2).
