Pioneer DVD Optical Sensor (Reshoot)

Reshoot of this same chip (flic.kr/p/2iVKgrK), except now with my better camera, scope and experience.

 

I was surprised to see those reflections from the bonding wires, I did not see them in the last shoot since I was not using an internal lamp, they look pretty cool in my opinion. I'm really happy with how DIC worked on this one, it makes a huge difference in helping to differentiate layers.

 

Please see the first post of this chip for more details. I cannot provide dimensions on this chip since I left it in the clear package and it's dimensions do not correspond to the ones of the chip inside of it.

 

Any warping of the image near the edge is caused by the clear plastic which encases this chip. Also the three "photocell" squares in the center move slightly to the left when starting from the top one and moving down to the bottom one. This is not a stitching or warping error, I checked with my own eyes the chip actually does this, not sure why.
