SkyWater imaging solutions for thermal cameras

SkyWater has launched ThermaView Solutions for thermal imaging system designers. These solutions will deliver capabilities to support development and production of state-of-the-art, large-format focal plane arrays for aerospace and defense as well as broad-market industrial and automotive designs. A focal plane array, at the heart of thermal imaging cameras, captures thermal radiation and converts it into electrical signals to form an image. SkyWater’s ThermaView technology offerings will span CMOS platforms for cooled and uncooled read-out Ics (ROICs), while also supporting microbolometer technologies in uncooled thermal imaging applications. By addressing the unique requirements of these markets, SkyWater continues to drive innovation and provide tailored U.S.-based solutions that empower customers to achieve their design and performance goals across diverse thermal imaging systems. The initial ThermaView platform offering will be SkyWater’s recently qualified 90nm CMOS process. Referred to as S90LN, the ROIC-centric platform provides industry-leading low noise performance with process design kit (PDK) enabled support for large format die. S90LN is the most advanced domestic semiconductor platform specifically tailored for ROIC applications, enabling high-density routing technology to increase pixel density for high-resolution designs. Furthermore, ROIC chips made on Sk...
