Integrate Then Read out modeIntegrate Then Readout (ITR) mode, is a type of readout mode used in some sensors, especially those that measure continuous physical quantities. In this mode, the sensor integrates light for a predetermined amount of time, then periodically reads out the charge that has accumulated, which is the integrated value. This reduces read noise but, if the scene is not perfectl...read more

SWIR (short-wave infrared) technology is a type of imaging technology that operates in the short-wave infrared spectrum. Short Wave Infrared is a light that comes under the electromagnetic spectrum at a wavelength range between 900 nm and 2500 nm. This range falls in between the near-IR and Mid IR wavelength bands. The light in this band is invisible to the human eye. This wavelength range can onl...read more

Quantum Efficiency Fill Factor (QEFF) is a combination of quantum efficiency (QE) and fill factor (FF), which are the key parameters that determine the efficiency of the Short-Wave Infrared (SWIR) sensor that is used to detect light in the near-infrared spectrum. By converting more light into electrical energy and using more of the electrical energy generated, these two parameters play a crucial r...read more
