Such thermal investigation would be a challenge as the temperature differential inside the Micro-bolometer FPA is intentionally very small. The sensing elements do not produce heat. The resolution of the FireFlIR (320x240) is also too low for die detail, even when using a close-up lens. |

Next time I have it apart, I will try with a halogen lamp |

I found an interesting and enlightening document on Microbolometer design that had Inframetrics input. I have placed it under its own heading here: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/projects/thermal-imaging-camera-microbolometer-design-detail/msg312455/#msg312455 Fraser |
