Abstract
The Engineering Model (EM) and Flight Model (FM) Focal Plane Assembly (FPA)/dewar assemblies have been fabricated, tested, and delivered for system integration, and the EM instrument has been assembled and tested. The key design features of the FPA and dewar have been presented in previous SPIE symposia and will only be briefly reviewed. The primary emphasis in this paper is on the performance results such as sensitivity, linearity and spectral response as well as environmental test results and a review of the assembly of the flight hardware.
