Digital Readout Integrated Circuit (ROIC)

Abstract

This effort investigates and designs new Digital Readout Integrated Circuit (DROIC) technology (digital-in-pixel) enabling the affordable very large format and multiband IR FPAs. The digital-in-pixel results in increased signal storage available to collect incoming signal information from the scene, compared to traditional analog techniques. DROIC is an important component in reducing the overall IR sensor cost and SWaP by allowing much smaller FPA pitch. The increased storage improves dynamic range for targeting, situational awareness and persistent surveillance applications.
