Micro-size IR detection module based on HgCdTe room temperature photovoltaic multi-junction detectormicroM-10.6

microM-10.6 is a detection module featuring an uncooled photovoltaic multi-junction IR detector based on an HgCdTe heterostructure (PVM-10.6-1x1-TO39-NW-90), integrated with a micro-size, transimpedance amplifier.
For proper operation, it is recommended to use the PPS-03-09 VIGO power supply.
The microM-10.6 detection module is easy to assemble in space-limited systems.

 

This is a Selected Product. It belongs to our family of MWIR and LWIR detectors and detection modules selected as the most suitable options for the majority of Mid Infrared applications.
