What Does FPA Stand For?
FPA stands for Focal Plane Array
Focal Plane Array (FPA) refers to an arrangement of sensor elements, such as photodetectors, organized in a two-dimensional grid at the focal plane of an optical system. This technology is widely used in various applications, including infrared imaging, astrophysics, and remote sensing, enabling the capture of high-resolution images and data across a broad spectrum of wavelengths. FPAs are essential for enhancing the performance of imaging systems, improving sensitivity, and facilitating advanced analytical capabilities.
