01 / Product introduction

Product introduction

Built on type-II superlattice (T2SL) technology with a 10 μm small-pixel package, this detector delivers megapixel-class 1280 × 1024 infrared imaging. The small pixel raises system resolution and field of view while allowing a smaller, shorter lens — reducing the size, weight and cost of the complete system. It is built for long-range civil surveillance, high-end UAV payloads, industrial chip inspection and petrochemical patrol work.

03 / Core advantages

Core advantages

01
Megapixel detailA 1280 × 1024 array on a 10 μm pitch multiplies detail resolution, capturing small distant targets and minute hot spots with ease.
02
High sensitivity and consistencyAn NETD of ≤22 mK, operability of ≥99.7% and response non-uniformity of ≤8% present a smooth, high-contrast thermal picture.
03
Compact-optics compatibilityThe 10 μm pixel pitch substantially reduces front-end focal length and lens diameter, lowering optical cost and total system weight.
04
Stable continuous operationSteady-state consumption of ≤6 W supports round-the-clock monitoring in continuously powered installations.
