Ambient specifications apply using 500°K blackbody and bias of 50 V/mm across the detector and 1 Megohm load resistor in series. apply using 500°K blackbody and bias of 50V/mm across the detector and 1 Megohm load resistor in series.
TE Cooled specifications apply using 500°K blackbody and bias of 35 V/mm across the detector and 1 Megohm load resistor in series at or near max cooling from a +25°C heatsink. Units are hermetically sealed with sapphire or Si windows.
Max rated element temperature is +85°C.
