TE269
OECF 36 Chart (following ISO 14524/15739 and IEC 62676-5)
TE269 version 2 (V2) uses the same data measurements as the original version but has a different hardware design. The first version of the TE269 uses two plates of glass built around the chart film. On occasion, we encountered a few problems with stray light and reflections from the glass. Version 2 replaces the glass with a metal frame, which greatly reduces the chance of stray light and reflections.
When working with high dynamic range cameras, it is normal to use OECF charts with patch densities according to ISO 14524. However, many of these charts have large gaps between the high-density patches because they are calculated using the cube root formula.
Our 36 patch OECF TE269B V2 chart presents a solution to this problem. While these charts still closely follow IS0 14524, it also implements additional steps to address the higher density levels. High dynamic ranges up to 1.000.000:1 / 120 dB are attainable using these charts. In addition, they also benefit from having a stable production process and being strongly neutral.
Transparent test charts are best illuminated using a uniform illumination device such as the high-powered LG3 light box.
The iQ-Analyzer software can be used for obtaining more accurate results of OECF, dynamic range, SNR, noise, temporal noise, and visual noise.
Technical information
- These transparent test charts are available in size D280
- The aspect ratio of the test pattern is 16:9 with integrated markers for 4:3 and 3:2 formats
- 36 patches with densities from 0.03 up to more than 6 (for 1.000.000:1 / 120 dB and higher)
- The standard version of TE269 V2 uses a screening to form the gray levels
The three variants available are:
TE269A V2
Gray patches according to ISO 14524.
TE269B V2
Better differentiation of the dark patches. The steps are based on the supporting points of the TE264 (20 patch chart) with a spreading of the steps in between.
TE269C V2*
This version has been adapted to the requirements of the standard IEC 62676-5: Video surveillance systems for use in security applications – Part 5: Data specifications and image quality performance for camera devices.
*For TE269C V2 we recommend using with a strong illumination device, e.g., LG3

Chart sizes
The test charts are available in the sizes listed below. Please note that some charts cannot be manufactured in all sizes due to technical reasons. Please do not hesitate to ask for additional information.
During production, specific regions of test charts are measured to qualify the production process or to create individual reference data accompanying a test chart additionally. Measured regions can be color or gray tones.
The measurement devices are calibrated regularly and proven before use. You can find further information in our reference data accuracy sheet.
