The image sensor in the AXIOM Gamma will be mechanically adjustable in dimensions of flange focal distance (back focus = Z-axis), a shift in XY-axes and XYZ rotation.

For creating space for the heatpipes and decoupling the image sensor from the rest of the module two rigid-flex PCBs are added to the existing designs. The rigid part of the rigid-flex PCB will be screwed to the back of the module exposing the connectors to the back.


Two cooling options:

  • passive: Copper heatpipes
  • active: Peltier element behind sensor (see below)

Peltier:

Usage of a Peltier-element proves to be problematic:

High power consumption renders mobile usages inefficient

Power consumption within the Peltier generates more additional heat

Water condensation within the electronics on the cool Peltier side, requirement of sealing -> increased complexity of manufacturing, design, maintenance, repairs, etc.

Conclusion:

Sensor front end module without Peltier element for general usage, one version with Peltier element for people who are aware of the implications and/or for experimentation purposes
