Abstract

A substrate for attaching infrared detector elements to multi-layer modules has a detector interface member to which the infrared detector elements are attachable and which is attachable to the multi-layer module so as to provide electrical communication between the infrared detector elements and the multi-layer module. At least one removable tab is formed upon the detector interface member and a plurality of probing pads are formed upon each tab. Conductive conduits formed upon each tab extend from the detector interface member to the probing pads so as to facilitate electrical communication between dedicated ones of the infrared detector elements and dedicated ones of the probing pads. The probing pads facilitate electrical testing of individual infrared detector elements.
