The invention provides a universal 
infrared focal plane equipment development 
system based on model design. The universal 
infrared focal plane equipment development 
system comprises a 
distributed development unit, a 
database unit and a 
simulation test unit, and the three units are interconnected through the 
Ethernet, wherein the 
distributed development unit is used for forming a design file, carrying out local 
simulation debugging and implementing automatic 
code generation, and interacting design and configuration information with the 
database unit; the 
database unit is used for providing shared data storage for all development terminals and controlling and cooperating the local resource establishment 
configuration management flow of the development terminals; the 
simulation test unit is used for providing essential 
software and hardware resources necessary for a 
simulation test process or a remote semi-physical simulation process, monitoring the conditions of a 
simulation test end and carrying out real-time online semi-physical simulation and key index parameter test works. The universal 
infrared focal plane equipment development 
system provided by the invention realizes the online semi-physical simulation and the key 
index test of the focal plane equipment, effectively reduces the research and development cost and improves the research and development efficiency.
