HgCdTe 32-channel thermoelectrically-cooled infrared detection module with an integrated first stage transimpedance amplifier32EM-5-01

32EM-5-01 is a detection module featuring a 32-element linear thermoelectrically cooled photovoltaic infrared detector based on a HgCdTe heterostructure. Each active element has dimensions of 0.125 mm × 1 mm. 32EM-5-01 includes an integrated first-stage transimpedance amplifier. For proper operation, external heatsinking and an external thermoelectric cooler controller are required.
