Frequency Bandwidth up to 0.25, 1 GHz; Low Cut-off Frequency DC-10 kHz; High Cut-off Frequency 100 kHz-1 GHz; Transimpedance 0.5-200 kV/A; Output Impedance 50 Ω; Output Voltage Swing ±1-±10 V Vigo System’s AIP, PIP, MIP, FIP and SIP configurable line series of infrared (IR) detection modules integrate the infrared photodetector and the preamplifier in a common package. This integration makes the detectors less vulnerable to over-bias, electrostatic discharge, electromagnetic interference (EMI) and other environmental exposures. Additional advantages of the integration are improved high-frequency (HF) performance, output signal standardization, miniaturization, and cost reduction. Vigo System’s broad line of transimpedance preamplifiers is especially designed for integration with each type of the supplier’s IR detectors. The configurable line of modules enables the selection of the active area, type of preamplifier and bandwidth of the detection module. This makes it possible to adapt the module to the needs of your own application. To obtain the most optimal parameters of integrated module each preamplifier is individually matched to the selected detector. The parameters of each integrated set will be known after final evaluation (matching, adjustment and final tests). If you need any assistance in selecting Vigo System products that are appropriate for your application, please contact the AMS Technologies IR detector specialists. Vigo System’s AIP series is a new generation of transimpedance, AC or DC coupled preamplifiers. It is designed to operate with either biased or non-biased Vigo System detectors. AIP is „all‑in-one” device – a preamplifier is integrated with a fan and a thermoelectric cooler controller in a compact housing. It is very convenient and user‑friendly device, thus can be easily used in a variety of applications. AIP series modules can be equipped with thermoelectrically cooled models of the PC, PCI, PV, PVI, PVM and PVMI IR detector series. Vigo System’s PIP series comprises programmable, “smart” preamplifiers, offering extreme flexibility combined with superior signal parameters and high reliability. A built-in voltage monitor allows to check and optimize the working conditions (supply voltages, detector bias voltage, first and last stage output voltage offset etc.). It is also possible to change the gain, coupling (AC/DC), optimize the first stage transimpedance and manually or automatically suppress the voltage offset. Optimized parameters are stored into the internal EEPROM memory and automatically loaded after the power is on. Reset to default settings is available at any time. For proper operation, the PTCC-01 TEC controller is required. PIP series modules can be equipped with thermoelectrically cooled models of the PC, PCI, PV, PVI, PVM and PVMI IR detector series. Vigo System’s MIP series provides medium-size transimpedance, DC or AC coupled preamplifiers, intended to operate with either biased or non-biased Vigo System IR detectors. MIP series modules are equipped with a fan, do not require any additional external heatsink and are one of the most user-friendly preamplifier series which surely facilitates work. MIP series modules can be equipped with thermoelectrically cooled models of the PC, PCI, PV, PVI, PVM and PVMI IR detector series. Vigo System’s FIP series of high-speed transimpedance, AC-coupled preamplifiers is intended to operate with the biased, TE-cooled IR detector models of Vigo System’s PV and PVI series. Thi series’ fast preamplifier enables precise I-V conversion, detector biasing up to 800 mV and simultaneously maintains compact size and keeps current noise low. FIP series modules are equipped with a fan and do not require additional heat dissipation. They are suitable for applications requiring wide frequency bandwidth. An additional DC output is available as an option. Vigo System’s SIP series of ultra-small transimpedance, AC- or DC-coupled preamplifiers is designed to operate with either biased or non-biased detectors. It is compatible with uncooled IR detectors (in TO39 package, SIP-TO39) or thermoelectrically cooled IR detectors (in TO8 package, SIP-TO8) of the PC, PCI, PV, PVI, PVM and PVMI series. SIP series modules are dedicated for OEM applications, require external heatsinks and provide a possibility to adjust gain (devices with a frequency bandwidth up to 100 MHz).

1-15 µm; Active Area 0.000625-16 mm²; Detectivity ≥9.0×106- 4.0×1010 cm·Hz1/2/W; Resistance ≤120-≤1,200 Ω; Package TO39, BNC, TO8, TO 66 Vigo System’s PC/PCI range of photoconductive detectors is based on the photoconductive effect. Infrared radiation generates charge carriers in the semiconductor active region decreasing its resistance. The resistance change is sensed as a current change by applying a constant voltage bias. The PC/PCI series devices are characterized by near linear current-voltage characteristics. The electric field in photoconductors is constant across the device. These components are based on sophisticated HgCdTe heterostructures for the best performance and stability and optimized for the maximum performance at λopt. Vigo System’s PC series features 1 µm to 12 μm HgCdTe uncooled, ambient temperature IR photoconductive detectors. The devices should operate in optimum bias voltage and current readout mode. Performance at low frequencies is reduced due to 1/f noise. The 1/f noise corner frequency increases with the cut-off wavelength. PC series devices are also available thermoelectrically cooled by two-stage (PC-2TE series), three-stage (PC-3TE series) or even four-stage (PC-4TE series) TEC structures, resulting in 1 µm to 14 μm (PC-2TE), 1 µm to 15 μm (PC-3TE) or 1 µm to 16 µm (PC-3TE) HgCdTe photoconductive detectors. These series are protected by a 3° wedged sapphire (wAl2O3, PC-2TE) or zinc selenide anti-reflection coated (wZnSeAR) window, preventing unwanted interference effects. The PCI series is optically immersed in order to further improve the parameters of the devices. This series’ cut-on wavelength is limited by GaAs transmittance (~0.9 μm). Corresponding to the PC series, PCI series components are also available either as 1 µm to 12 μm HgCdTe uncooled, ambient temperature IR photoconductive detectors or as 1 µm to 15 µm (PCI-4TE: 16 µm) HgCdTe photoconductive detectors that are thermoelectrically cooled by two-stage (PCI-2TE series), three-stage (PCI-3TE series) or even four-stage (PCI-4TE series) TEC structures, again with a 3° wedged sapphire (wAl2O3, PC-2TE) or wedged zinc selenide anti-reflection coated (wZnSeAR) window, preventing unwanted interference effects. For its range of PC/PCI HgCdTe (MCT) photoconductive detectors, Vigo System provides a broad range of selected line or configurable line infrared (IR) detection modules that integrate the IR photodetector with the preamplifier and – depending on the module series – also signal processing electronics, optics, heat dissipation systems and other components in a common package. Key Features: High Detectivity Low Speed High Stability and Reliability, Long Lifetime and MTBF 1/f Noise Corner Frequency fc: ≤10 kHz to ≤20 kHz Active Element Material: Epitaxial HgCdTe Heterostructure Optimal Wavelength λopt: 5.0 to 14.0 μm With or Without Immersion Microlens Technology Uncooled, Room Temperature Operation or Thermoelectrically Cooled (2-Stage, 3-Stage or 4-Stage) Detectivity D*: ≥1.9x107 to ≥4.0×1010 cm·Hz1/2/W (λpeak, 20 kHz), ≥9.0×106 to ≥2.0×1010 cm·Hz1/2/W (λopt, 20 kHz) Different Sizes of Active/Optical Area A(O): 25×25 µm² to 4×4 mm² Current Responsivity-Active (Optical) Area Length Product Ri(λopt)·L(O): ≥0.001 to ≥3.0 A·mm/W Time Constant τ: ≤2 ns to ≤20,000 ns Bias Voltage Active Area Length Ration Vb/L: ≤0.15 V/mm to ≤24.5 V/mm Resistance R: ≤120 to ≤1,200 Ω Active Element Temperature Tdet: ~195 to ~230 K (TE-cooled Versions) Different Acceptance Angles Φ: ~36° to ~124° Different Packages: TO39, BNC, TO8, TO 66 Different Infrared Windows: None, wAl2O3, wZnSeAR Wide Range of Dedicated Preamplifiers and Accessories Available Applications: Industrial; Medical; Automotive; Environmental; Laser Power Control and Calibration; Gas Analysis; Mid-IR Spectroscopy; Gas Leak Detection; Air Quality Analysis; Water Quality Control; Engine Emission Monitoring and Control; Fuel Quality Assessment; Analysis of Temperature Distribution; Railway Transport Safety; Plastic Sorting; Security and Defense

Two PIR elements per pair are electrically connected in series to one FET in source follower connection forming one individual analog output signal for each pair. The TO-5 housing includes an optical window in rectangular shape. Geometrically the two pairs have a narrow spacing. For better EMI protection, the detector includes an internal RC circuit.The PYQ 1548 low-power quad-element DigiPyro pyrodetector configures all four PIR elements combined to one digital output with exceptional energy-efficiency. The user selects and sets individual functions. A single-wire connection with separate input pin allows setting of sensitivity, bandpass selection, pulse count and wake up. This provides full functionality of a complete PIR sensing device when all following circuitry is in sleep mode. PYQ 1548 PIRs are also available with smaller elements of 0.8 mm x 0.8 mm - suitable for compact lenses and short detection distances. The PYQ 1748 quad-element DigiPyro pyrodetector provides economical quad configuration with all four elements combined to one common output. This enables ceiling-mount applications when applied with suitable lens optics. TO-5 housing is provided with rectangular window to accommodate wider field-of-view. Standard geometrical element layout offers equal distance and spacing with cross polarity.PYQ 2898 and PYQ 5848 quad-element DigiPyro pyrodetectors are distinguished by two pairs of PIR sensing elements with digitized signals for each pair. Together with the signal of an internal reference diode, the output via digital link forms a 3x14 bit stream. As to the spacing of the sensing elements, various designs are available. The TO-5 housing is provided with suitable window size to accommodate the field-of-view of the element configuration.Applications: Ceiling- and Wall-mount Sensing Applications; Long- and Mid-distance Motion Detection (With Lens); Energy Saving Applications (Light Management/Smart Home); Intrusion Alarms; Improved Pet Immunity Solutions (With Proper Lens)Please note that Excelitas products are available from us only in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden.

Responsivity 3.5 kV/W Typ.; Max. Noise 50 µVpp; Spec. Detectivity 17 x 107cm*√Hz/W; FoV (Horizontal/Vertical) 77°/77°, 135°/120°; Operating Voltage 2-10 VDCSingle-element pyroelectric detectors (PIR) are often applied for temperature and gas measuring applications in one-channel or dual-channel variants, which is then one output per element. Excelitas offers its PYS Series of single-element pyrodetectors as thermally compensated devices.The principle of gas monitor application is called NDIR. NDIR requires detectors with narrow-band optical filters. Excelitas provides a range of suited filter windows for those gases which show an absorption band in the IR spectral range.Excelitas’ PYS 3198 TC GX (replacement to LHi 807) is a single-channel, parallel format temperature-compensated elements PIR detector based on lithium-tantalate (Li-Ta). In the design for PYS 3198 TC, a single sensing element is placed in the center of the detector. For thermal compensation an additional element, (which is blinded from radiation), is connected in parallel.The TO-5 metal housing is equipped with an optical filter window. For gas measurement applications with Excelitas’ single-element pyrodetectors, typically the spectral range is narrowed to match the gas absorption in the IR range. As such the window is acting as a narrow-band optical filter.Almost like two detectors in one housing, the PYS 3428 (replacement to LHi 814) dual-channel, single-element pyrodetector includes two single-elements which are each thermally compensated by an additional blinded element sitting aside. Each output is optically linked to an individual optical window within the TO-5 metal housing. For each window, a variety of narrow-band optical filters are available to meet a range of specific sensing requirements.Each element has its own individual output signals, thus the name dual-channel. Since the PYS 3428 Pyrodetector has been specifically designed for gas measuring applications, it comes with narrow-band optical filter windows. Typically, one window is used as reference, for which Excelitas provides the filter version G20 as the reference window.The PYS 3928 TC digital dual-channel pyrodetector includes two single elements, both thermally compensated by an additional blinded element sitting aside. Each element is digitized and available as a 2x16-bit output at the digital link pin. Each element is optically linked to an individual optical window within the TO-5 metal housing. For each window, a selection of narrow-band optical filters is available to meet your specific detection requirements.As part of Excelitas’ DigiPyro series, this design offers the output of both sensing elements as a 2x16-bitstream of the direct link. With this 16-bit resolution, smaller noise values are given per digit. Since the PYS 3928 TC DigiPyro PIR has been designed especially for gas measuring applications, it comes with narrow-band optical filter windows. Typically, one window is used as reference, for which Excelitas provides the filter version G20. For the second window, various suited narrow-band filter windows are available.Applications: Non-dispersive Infrared (NDIR) Gas Sensing; CO2 Channel; CO2 vs. Reference ChannelPlease note that Excelitas products are available from us only in Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden.
