An electro-optical sensor chip assembly (SCA) that includes a detection device that includes an array of detector unit cells arranged in a matrix and that produce an electrical output in response to light. The SCA also includes an integrated control circuit in electrical communication with the detection device that includes a control word store to store a dataword. The control word store includes at least three sub-latches to redundantly store at least one bit of the dataword. The at least three sub-latches include a first sub-latch, a second sub-latch and a third sub-latch, each of the first sub-latch, the second sub-latch and the third sub-latch including an output and two recovery inputs, and the output of the first and third sub-latches are connected to the recovery inputs of the second sub-latch.
