Micro-size IR detection module based on InAsSb room temperature optically immersed photovoltaic detectormicroM-I-5
microM-I-5 is a detection module featuring an uncooled, optically immersed photovoltaic IR detector based on an InAsSb heterostructure (PVIA-5-1x1-TO39-NW-36), integrated with a micro-size, transimpedance amplifier.
For proper operation, it is recommended to use the PPS-03-09 VIGO power supply.
The microM-I-5 detection module is easy to assemble in space-limited systems.
