Typical D*(λpeak): 2x10⁹ Jones.
Biasing Voltage: Typically 10 V.
Pixel Resistance: 0.8 - 1.0 MΩ.
Responsivity: 9x10³ V/W for 1x1 mm² and 4.5x10³ V/W for 2x2 mm².

Packaging Options:

Uncooled: SMD (non-hermetic) and TO-5 (hermetic).
n-TEC Cooled: TO-8 (hermetic).
Operating Temperature: 5 ºC - 70 ºC for SMD, -40 ºC - 85 ºC for TO-5 & TO-8.

Response Time: Less than 2 microseconds at room temperature.

Device Dimensions:

SMD Packaging: 10 mm x 10 mm with sapphire window.
TO-5 Packaging: 9.14 mm diameter with sapphire window.
TO-8 Packaging: 15.24 mm diameter with sapphire window.

Preamplifier Modules:

Channels: 1.
Detector Included: LEPTON SERIES 1x1 mm² or 2x2 mm².
IR Detection Band: 1.0 - 5.0 microns (MWIR).
Sensor Biasing: Selectable via rotary switch or digitally, with values of 1.25, 2.5, 5, and 10 V.
Gain: Selectable with values of 10⁴, 10⁵, 10⁶, 10⁷ V/A.
Output: Analog voltage with DC coupling, range ±10 V, current ±10 mA.
Noise: 5 pA @ 1,000 Hz and max. gain.
Power Supply: 5 V (min. 4.5, max. 5.5 V).
