ETC Request ID: STIS.sp.1005285

Exposure time (seconds) = 8.0000 at wavelength 7500.00 Å

gives: SNR = 53.1173 (per resolution element)

gives: Time to Saturation (for a single exposure) = 58.16 seconds

Exposure time calculation HAD WARNINGS.

WARNING MESSAGE: Partial overlap between instrument throughput band and target spectrum. Please doublecheck the wavelength range covered by the selected spectrum, and the instrument documentation for the selected filter.

WARNING MESSAGE: "Electrons per pixel due to background (0.073) is less than the recommended threshold of 20 electrons to avoid poor charge transfer efficiency (CTE). We suggest you consider CTE mitigation strategies described in the STIS Instrument Handbook."
