A high speed radio frequency signal interconnect device provides for signal communication within a system at cryogenic temperatures. The device includes a plurality of conductive traces provided on a first dielectric substrate where the ends of the traces have a predetermined shape. A second dielectric substrate covers the first dielectric substrate leaving the ends of the traces exposed. A connector is coupled to each respective end and includes pins coupled to a respective trace. Each connector is configured to define a respective isolating chamber about each of the first ends of the conductive traces where the pins are attached.

Wide-band high speed communications channel for cryogenic applications

A combined scanning and staring (SCARING) focal plane array (FPA) imaging system having a plurality of modes of operation is provided. In one example, the SCARING FPA system includes a photodetector array with a plurality of photodetectors arranged in a plurality of photodetector rows, a readout integrated circuit (ROIC) coupled to the photodetector array, and a processor coupled to the ROIC. The processor coupled to the ROIC is configured to dynamically configure the SCARING FPA between a scanning mode of operation and a staring mode of operation.
