Dione-640 Image

The Xenics Dione 640 is a series of LWIR thermal imaging cores optimized to meet today’s increased demand for smaller size, lower weight and lower power (SWaP).
Based on an uncooled 12 μm pitch microbolometer detector with a  resolution and NETD of less than 60 mK, it is a cutting edge LWIR core for the safety and security market as well as industrial applications.

There are two lines available within this series, the OEM series and the CAM series!

The overall size of the OEM core is 25 x 25 x 10 mm3  and weight is 6 gr. It utilizes Xenics image enhancement for advanced image processing while keeping power consumption low.

Xenics Dion 640 CAM

All Dione 640 versions have the same SAMTEC ST5 connector and are GenICAM compliant.

The Dione 640 CAM M24 and M34 are available with multiple lens configurations.

The ultra-compact Dione 640 series find application in safety and security systems, as well as in industrial thermal imaging systems.

The Dione 640 evaluation kit includes the Dione-OEM, evaluation board (converts output to standard CL), sensor-to-evaluation cable, power adaptor and cord for evaluation board, USB2 cable, CL cable and lens.
