Digital Readout Integrated Circuit (ROIC)

Abstract

This effort investigates and designs new Digital Readout Integrated Circuit (ROIC) technology (digital-in-pixel) enabling the affordable very large format and multiband Infrared Focal Plane Arrays (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. The increased storage improves dynamic range for targeting, situational awareness and persistent surveillance applications, contributing to the ability of the U.S. to ensure its historical night vision battlefield advantage.
