===Dynamic range===
 
Dynamic range is the ratio of the largest and smallest recordable signal, the smallest being typically defined by the 'noise floor'. In the image sensor literature, the noise floor is taken as the readout noise, so <math> DR = Q_\text{max} / \sigma_\text{readout}</math><ref>{{cite book|last=Kavusi|first=Sam|author2=El Gamal, Abbas|title=Sensors and Camera Systems for Scientific, Industrial, and Digital Photography Applications V |chapter=Quantitative study of high-dynamic-range image sensor architectures |journal=Sensors and Camera Systems for Scientific |editor3-first=Ricardo J|editor3-last=Motta|editor2-first=Nitin|editor2-last=Sampat|editor1-first=Morley M|editor1-last=Blouke |year=2004|volume=5301|pages=264–275|doi=10.1117/12.544517|bibcode=2004SPIE.5301..264K|s2cid=14550103|chapter-url=http://www-isl.stanford.edu/groups/elgamal/abbas_publications/C099.pdf|access-date=17 December 2011}}</ref> (note, the read noise <math>\sigma_{readout}</math> is the same quantity as <math>N_r</math> referred to in the SNR calculation<ref name="noise" />).
