Teledyne Space Imaging holds some of the records for great engineering and scientific achievements. Our imaging sensors have been central to obtaining the first close up images of Pluto, visiting the Kuiper Belt and navigating fly-pasts of Mercury. These experiences have led to a proven track record resulting in devices flying for more than 16 years and then performing as planned in critical applications. This has informed all our service capabilities, allowing us to provide products that will persevere through the harshest of space environments.

 A vital component to learning more about other worlds is the ability to capture detailed images and spectroscopic data across the visible, UV, NIR and infrared (IR) spectrum. During 30 years of collaborating with the highest profile missions, the detailed scientific information and images obtained with Teledyne Space Imaging's CCD and CMOS sensors and IR FPAs are helping us understand more about our solar system. Essential device characteristics needed for these missions include low noise, very low dark current, deep depleted MCT, large pixel sizes, backside illumination and backthinned detector substrates.

Teledyne Space Imaging can provide the highest performance, optimised and custom package solutions and assemblies for any mission.
