1280x1024 / 12μm Megapixels Cooled FPA Detector with Integrated Dewar Cooler Assembly

The C1212M is an integrated dewar cooler assembly at the format of 1280x1024@12μm. It is China’s first 12μm HgCdTe (MCT) cooled infrared detector with resolution up to 1,310,720 effective imaging pixels. Compared with the traditional 15μm products, the reduced 12µm pixel size offer better spatial resolution and match shorter optical lens focus to achieve the same range mission. As a result, the infrared cameras or systems designed based on C1212M is more compact in size and affordable in price, but never compromise in performance.

- Resolution: 1280x1024
- Pixel Pitch: 12μm
- High Sensitivity
- Compact Design
- Lightweight
- Low Power Consumption

The C1212M MWIR cryogenically cooled infrared detector is widely used many areas such as Remote Monitoring System, Flight Vision Enhancement System, Multi-sensor Payload etc.

1.What is infrared detector / thermal imaging sensor?

Infrared waves cannot be seen with the human eye. Infrared detector / thermal imaging sensor is an optical-electrical device to react to infrared radiation and thermal energy and convert it into electrical signal and then output visible thermal images.

2.What is WLP?

WLP refers to wafer level package. It is the process of completing high vacuum packaging directly on the entire MEMS wafer, then scribing and cutting to make a single infrared sensor. Together with metal package, ceramic package, they are the 3 main package formats of uncooled infrared detectors.

3. What's the advantage of WLP?

WLP IR detectors are specially designed to meet the miniaturization and low cost requirement in the application of infrared technology to consumer electronics market. Global Sensor Technology, with volume fabrication capability, is now offering a variety of WLP infrared module solutions to boost more new applications of emerging markets.
