Definitions
• An infrared detector is a photodetector that detects infrared radiation and
converts it into a signal. By using several single detection elements
(called pixels), it forms an array of pixels.
• Main parts of an IR detecting system:
System
(IR motion detector here) Detector
packaged
• IR detector systems are very variable: motion detector, ear thermometer, spot
thermometer, people counter…
• Modules include the packaged detector + PCB + socket + fresnel lens option.
• Packaged detectors include: chip + ASIC + packaging + optics lens option.
• Various chip size (from 1 to 80x80 pixels) and pixel pitch (from 34µ to 500µ in 2012)

Market Research Scope and Methodology
• Market research scope– The report surveys uncooled infrared detectors that supply a signal to be
analyzed and not an image. The detector size goes from one pixel to lower than
160*120 pixels. The wavelengths targeted are mostly Long Wave Infrared
(LWIR) from 8 to 12 microns. Some applications however use other Mid Wave
Infrared (MWI) wavelengths e.g. gas detection and spectroscopy.
– This includes the following technologies:• Pyroelectric using crystal, ceramic, and thin film
• Thermopiles
• Microbolometers
– An overview of small IR imager (less than 160x120) is provided in the report
but Infrared imagers are covered in detail by the Uncooled Infrared Imaging
market report.
– Market estimates are done for the 2011 – 2018 time period in $ (with $1.30 =
one euro conversion)

Market Research Scope and Methodology
• Methodology:
– This research has been prepared based on:
• Primary information sources: direct interviews with companies all along the value
chain (detector manufacturers, camera manufacturers, camera distributors, final
users).
• Secondary information sources: conferences, web sites, newsletters....
– All data, graphs, tables, and calculations in this report are based on Yole
Développement’s investigation.

Market Research Scope and Methodology
• There are three kind of infrared detectors: – Monopixels
– Linescan
– Arrays
In this report, we will primarily
focus on monopixel and array type of
detectors.
Linear detectors are used in more niche
applications such as in-line optical sorting,
or scanned surveillance

Infrared Detector Market Forecast by ApplicationScenario 2: Penetration in mobile devices
2011-2018 (in $M)
• Mobile devices is a high volume market that is strongly price sensitive & demanding on form factor miniaturization. As a
consequence IR detectors used in smartphones & tablets have a very low price point starting from $0.5 at high volume and
will experience a strong price erosion due to sales growth. A double digit average price erosion is expected (~ -10%).
• Thermopiles players are expected to dominate that new market because pyroelectrics are less suitable for accurate
temperature measurement. Texas Instruments is very well positioned on that market since the introduction of its Wafer
Level Packaged sensor in 2011.
