DIGITAL TIMING RATE BUFFERING FOR THERMAL STABILITY OF UNCOOLED DETECTORS

摘要

A system (100) and method for outputting data from a detector (104). The novel system (100) includes a first controller (118) that samples the detector (104) at a first rate, memory (112) for storing the sample data, and a second controller (120) that outputs the data from the memory (112) at a second rate. In an illustrative embodiment, the first rate is symmetrical from field to field, while the second rate is asymmetrical from field to field.
