For visual comparison of resolution over a continuous or closely stepped spatial-frequency range.
Sayce Logarithmic Resolution Target R72: For visual comparison of resolution over a continuous or closely stepped spatial-frequency range.

A changing sequence of line spacings presents a frequency range within one field. A coordinate-to-frequency mapping is needed to interpret the observed limit.
Use a progressive-frequency pattern when the test benefits from seeing a continuous change from coarse to fine detail along a known direction.
Checkerboards, dots and grids describe image geometry. Resolution charts describe detail reproduction. A calibration workflow may need both, but they answer different questions.
Pattern size, feature spacing, polarity, usable field, substrate outline and mounting references can be selected around the camera and illumination. Measured geometry and traceable calibration are separate documentation requirements.
A glass target in the selected pattern, polarity and substrate format, with the dimensional inspection or calibration records included in the order.
For visual comparison of resolution over a continuous or closely stepped spatial-frequency range.
Measure spacing at selected coordinates and verify the frequency map, feature continuity and labels.
Quality & Inspection PhotolithographyCompare focus and resolved detail with this optical test pattern.
Specify the frequency endpoints, progression law and target-plane scale. Resizing the artwork changes physical frequency and requires updated labels.

Match this artwork reference to its labelled dimensions, polarity and active field. The product image, manufacturing artwork and inspection drawing should identify the same revision.
Artwork reference, labelled geometry, active area, substrate outline, illumination and inspection requirements.
Use the pattern reference and its specific geometry, labels and intended measurement. A similar outline or photograph does not establish the same frequency, coordinates or reading convention.
