The Sparrow-HD is a cutting-edge, low-SWaP 5μm MWIR detector module engineered to meet the stringent demands of the defense wide distribution market. Its innovative design ensures exceptional performance while minimizing size, weight and power consumption, making it a game-changer in the industry.
Sparrow-HD is based on two mature sensing material technologies:
• XBn with 4.2μm cut-off, operating at 150K and enabling minimal power consumption
• Hot Full-Mid-Wave (HFM) with 4.85μm cut-off, operating at 120K and supporting up to 200Hz

PELICAN-D LW is a 640x512 elements, 15μm pitch, Type-2 SuperLattice (T2SL) technology
based 2D Long Wave Infrared (LWIR) digital IDCA. The new ROIC outputs digital signal, similarly to SCD’s previous digital detectors: Sebastian-320, Sebastian-480, Sebastian-640, Pelican-D, Hercules, and Blackbird. Pelican-D LW is available in the same configurations as the standard (MW) Pelican-D, with a large variety of cold shield apertures and cooler types. The proximity
board provides the FPA timing and sensitive power supplies. Camera-Link interface highly simplifies the integration of the detector to the system.

The Crane stands as a state-of-the-art Mid-Wave Infrared (MWIR) detector. This device features a 5-megapixel resolution in a 2560×2048 format with a fine 5μm pitch. It is based on SCD's established XBn technology or Hot Full Midwave (HFM) and incorporates a digital readout circuit developed using an advanced CMOS process. The High Operating Temperature (HOT) Focal Plane Array (FPA) functions efficiently at 150K or 120K, enabling a large-format detector that excels in image quality while maintaining a relatively compact size, weight, and power consumption. SCD continues to lead in innovation.

PELICAN-D JT is a MWIR detector for missile applications. The FPA is InSb based, having digital
Readout Integrated Circuit (ROIC) in a format of 640 x 512 with 15μm pitch. Pelican-D JT has a unique structure of Dewar which enables very fast cool down time and hence quick mission readiness using Joule-Thomson (JT) cooler. Due to the low heat load on the focal plane, the detector achieves long mission duration. The Detector can be supplied with a proximity
board which provides Camera Link interface to the customer system. This highly simplifies the
integration of the detector to the system.

The SWIFT-EI is the world’s first SWIR detector to feature a state-of-the-art read-out integrated circuit (ROIC), enabling low size, weight, power, and cost (SWaP-C). It supports VGA image format for SWIR imaging, multi-spot ALPD (asynchronous laser pulse detection), and a rapid imaging frame rate of up to 1,600 frames per second.
The revolutionary ROIC introduces an independent neuromorphic imaging stream for event detection, which greatly expands capabilities in target detection and classification.
Ideal for cutting-edge, low SWaP-C applications, the SWIFT-EI can be integrated into a variety of air platforms, missiles, vehicles, and handheld devices, making it extraordinarily versatile. With SWIFT-EI, SCD’s customers always have the advantage of being the FIRST TO SEE.
