CS1215M/R59A Large-Format Cooled MWIR Detector

The CS1215M/R59A is a cooled MWIR detector based on type-II superlattice (T2SL) technology. It combines a 1280 × 1024 array, 15 μm pixel pitch and a 3.7–4.8 μm spectral response for integration into infrared imaging equipment.

Product overview

The CS1215M/R59A is a cooled MWIR detector based on type-II superlattice (T2SL) technology. It combines a 1280 × 1024 array, 15 μm pixel pitch and a 3.7–4.8 μm spectral response for integration into infrared imaging equipment.

Listed performance includes NETD ≤18 mK, operability ≥99.7% and response non-uniformity ≤8%. The frame-rate options are 50 / 100 Hz, with the operating configuration to be confirmed. Cooldown is listed as ≤6 minutes and weight as ≤750 g; neither value defines a complete camera assembly.

Applications and integration

Application areas include industrial thermal inspection, laboratory imaging, energy-asset inspection and civil aerial monitoring. The 15 μm pixel pitch and 1280 × 1024 array define the detector format, while lens selection and system calibration determine field of view and measurement performance.

The electrical limits above apply to cryocooler input, not total detector-system or camera power. The ≤6 W DC steady-state limit applies specifically at 120 K cold-end temperature and 23 °C ambient. Confirm optics, readout and control interfaces, mechanical dimensions and acceptance conditions for the selected configuration. Treat frame rates and F-numbers as configuration choices rather than guaranteed simultaneous settings. NETD is thermal sensitivity, not calibrated temperature accuracy.
