Teledyne Imaging Sensors CHROMA™ Visible-Infrared Focal Plane Array Teledyne’s CHROMA™ configurable Hyperspectral Readout for Multiple Applications) is the most advanced focal plane array (FPA) developed for visible-infrared spectral imaging applications. Combined with Teledyne’s high performance substrate-removed HgCdTe detector technology, the CHROMA™ performance is unmatched by any other sensor. Array formats: 480 spectral channels (rows) with spatial dimension in multiples of 160 columns (e.g. 320×480, 640×480, 1280×480, 1600×480 pixels) Pixel pitch: 30×30 μm FPA architecture is a CMOS readout flip-chip hybridized to a detector. The readout circuit can be mated to substrate-removed HgCdTe for simultaneous visible-infrared detection or Teledyne’s HyViSI™ silicon PIN visible detector. Bandpass coverage: 330-1050 nm, 350-2500 nm, and 380-5500 nm.
