This paper presents a system-on-chip solution that acts as a companion to infrared focal plane arrays (IR-FPAs), providing them with precision references, regulated power supplies, clocks and timing signals, as well as sampling analog or digital outputs for signal conditioning, correction and processing. To serve a wide variety of infrared imaging detectors, the chip is designed in a fully configurable manner that allows users to program specifications of signals going to an FPA and implement any custom signal correction, processing and application-specific algorithms.
