The IRE-640L Sofradir EC infrared camera family harnesses the full performance of
the Sofradir Scorpio focal plane array while offering unique flexibility to meet the needs of any
application or OEM requirement. The cameras are available in mid-format
(320x256), large-format (640x512), and megapixel (1280x1024). The mid-format
Mars-based cameras have broad spectral response capabilities ranging from
SWIR (800nm-2.5μm), broadband MWIR (1.5-5μm), MWIR (3-5μm), LWIR (8-
10μm), and VLWIR (8-12μm). The Scorpio MW and LW and Jupiter MW based
cameras operate in the MWIR (3-5μm) and LWIR (8-10μm) regions. The engines
have a common connectivity and interface logic. The Mars, Scorpio and Jupiter
camera engines include an integrated detector/dewar/cooler assembly (IDDCA)
and electronics.
The camera electronics include camera and cooler controls modules. The
camera produces output signals that are uncorrected or corrected for nonuniformities
in an RS-170 video and 14-bit digital data format. Camera
communication is available over a serial (RS-232) interface. A 14-bit digital
data stream is available via LVDS and Camera Link as well as optionally Gigabit
Ethernet. With the optics options, the cameras can be customized to meet
any requirement. D*STAR, a digital storage, retrieval and image processing
Software Suite is available for infrared imaging research and development
applications. In addition, software developer toolkits (SDKs) and command
software modules are available for further flexibility.
