PYXCAM 4600 Proxy

PYXCAM 4600 Proxy

PYXCAM 4600 Proxy is a space-grade sensor proximity electronics board built around our GIGAPYX 4600 SG, the only space-ready sensor combining high resolution, very high speed and high sensitivity. Very compact and ergonomic (80 × 80 × 23.3 mm³), it is ready to be integrated with your Data Processing Unit (DPU). It provides a simplified interface from the sensor to the processing board, supporting the full sensor performance and functionality. It carries the high-speed video signals of the GIGAPYX 4600 over 8 to 128 LVDS, and is compatible with different imaging modes (snapshot / video, step-and-stare, pushbroom or pushframe). It is space qualified, ready to fly and designed to support an extended in-orbit operational lifetime for reduced mission risks. It is an ITAR-free solution, designed and assembled in France.
