Abstract

Leonardo DRS is a leader in small pixel uncooled FPA technology with the development of 10μm pixel 640×512 and 10μm pixel 1280×1024 FPA formats. Leonardo DRS offers the Tenum®640 and Tenum®1280 uncooled commercial camera cores based on these FPA formats. The Tenum®640 operates in 60Hz and 9Hz framerate modes with f/1 equivalent NETD sensitivity of <60mK and nominal power dissipation of 1.2W. The Tenum®1280 operates in 30Hz and 9Hz framerate modes with f/1 equivalent NETD sensitivity of <60mK and nominal power dissipation of 2.3W. The Tenum®640 uses a wafer-level vacuum packaged 10µm 640×512 FPA. In this paper, the Leonardo DRS Tenum®640 and Tenum®1280 camera cores will be discussed along with relevant 10µm FPA technology and advances in wafer-level vacuum packaging. In addition, a summary of Leonardo DRS 10µm and 17µm FPA formats in production will be presented. Finally, a broadband IR version of the Tamarisk®640 will be discussed.
