HD MWIR MCT Cooled 1280x1024 12μM Infrared Detector
C1212M MWIR by GST Infrared
High Definition Large Array 1280x1024 / 12μm MCT Cooled Infrared
Detector for Clear Thermal Imaging
Product Description
C1212M MWIR is one of the HgCdTe/MCT cooled mid wavelength infrared
detector developed by Global Sensor Technology (GST). It is a
combination of high definition, high performance and high
reliability.
The C1212M MWIR MCT Cooled Infrared detector offers four times as
many pixels in the same active image area as conventional 640x512
products. With large array 1280x1024 resolution it can realize
wider field of view and provide more image details. The reduced
12µm pixel size offers better spatial resolution and match shorter
optical lens focus to achieve the same range mission.
C1212M MWIR HgCdTe infrared detector is an ideal choice for thermal
imaging applications that require superior long range performance
and image details recognition in a low size, weight, and power
package.

FAQs
1. What is thermal sensitivity?
Thermal Sensitivity, also named NETD (Noise Equivalent Temperature
Difference), is a key parameter for evaluating medium wave (MWIR)
and long wave (LWIR) thermal imaging cameras. It is directly
related to the clarity measured by the thermal imager. It is a
numerical value representing the signal-to-noise ratio of the
temperature difference and measured in milliKelvins (mK). The
smaller the thermal sensitivity value, the higher the sensitivity
and the clearer the image.
2. What are the applications of thermal imaging?
Temperature measurement and all-weather imaging are two basic
functions of infrared thermal imaging technology. Products
developed based on these two technologies are widely used in
security & monitoring, UAV payloads, industrial inspection,
firefighting, predictive maintenance, ADAS, epidemic prevention,
AIoT etc.
