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. These products are available in a short lead time for small-batch orders and deliver reliable infrared solutions with stable parameters.
