Compact IDA Lead Selenide & Lead Sulfide Detectors
May 11 2010
Cal Sensors announced the launch of IDA (Integrated Detector Assembly) lead selenide and lead sulfide high-sensitivity infrared detectors with integrated electronics enclosed within a compact, hermetically sealed TO-8 package IDA detectors enhance measurement dynamic range, resulting in greater low signal detection capability, while reducing system costs and the overall sensor and peripheral electronics footprint by up to 50%. Covering the 1.0 to 5.5μm infrared region IDA detectors provide industry leading sensitivity of 1.5E10 Jones.
IDA detectors are ideally suited for a wide range of applications including industrial and medical gas analysis, auto and aviation emissions analysis, environmental monitoring, IR spectroscopy, thermal imaging and flame detection.
The small package size and low power requirements also enable integration into portable analysis and measurement systems.
Housing the electronic drivers within the detector package enhances noise performance since the detector is as close as possible to the first stage of amplification. This enables greater low signal detection capability for sensing trace elements by improving dynamic range.
In addition, to cost and footprint savings, IDA infrared detectors offer a hermetically sealed package. Thus, sensitive optical and electronic components are protected, even in harsh industrial environments, enhancing longterm durability.
IDA lead selenide (2.8 x 1010 cm Hz1/2 w-1 peak D*) and lead sulfide (1.5 x 1011cm Hz1/2 w-1 peak D) detectors are available in both 1mm and 2mm square sizes. The detectors come with integrated electronics in an industry standard T0-8 package and are available with a lead-time of six to eight weeks.
