Abstract

High Sensitivity Megapixel and VGA shortwave IR imagers are presented. The imagers have 1280×1024 and 640×512 resolution FPAs with 12.5 μm pitch. The associated camera electronics are designed to optimize small SWaP and performance for a variety of applications including man-portable and airborne systems. Performance characterization of both these imagers is presented showing low-noise, high dynamic range capability suitable for challenging operational environments including light-starved and urban environments as well as a variety of industrial applications.
