A heat balanced sigma-delta uncooled bolometer
Résumé
This paper describes a heat balanced bolometer with an integrated CMOS sigma-delta interface. The sigma-delta interface accomplishes both the analogue-to-digital conversion and the heat feedback and therefore no other digital core is required. The heat feedback is implemented using a capacitively coupled electrical substitution technique with a digitally modulated signal that enables feedback linearization. Proof of concept is experimentally demonstrated with a polymer-type resistive bolometer and infrared optical source.
