Exposure Throughput Grid Scan

captures and time separate

Fields, channels, and dwell time create two checked ledgers. Exact arithmetic here means exact results for the stated model inputs; measured inputs still carry uncertainty and significant-figure limits.

highlighted = computed this step

Small schedules expose few captures

Fields 2, channels 1, and dwell 5 s give captures 2 and total time 10 s.

More channels multiply captures without changing dwell

Fields 4, channels 3, and dwell 5 s give captures 12 and total time 20 s.

Short dwell can still have many captures

Fields 6, channels 4, and dwell 2 s give captures 24 and total time 12 s.
