Thin Film Pyroelectric
Linear 128 Element Line Sensor Array
with integrated read-out electronics
Product Summary
The Pyreos line sensor array utilises our unique thin-film pyroelectric PZT material
to offer class leading resolution and performance across a wide wavelength range
at a very affordable price. The ASIC readout electronics output a multiplexed an
amplified and filtered analogue signal for each sensor element. The sensor is
housed in a low profile hermetic metal package along with a temperature sensor
and is fitted with the customer’s choice of filter window.
