This paper describes the development of a focal plane array (FPA) readout system based on the NIRCA application specific integrated circuit (ASIC). The system aims to reduce the size, weight, power, and cost of IR image sensor systems. We have developed NIRCA and board-level electronics with NIRCA that allows users to connect FPAs and acquire data via Camera Link (CL) to their computers. The...
