abstract="The Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer (PACS) is one of the three science instruments on ESA{\textquoteright}s far infrared and submillimetre observatory. It employs two Ge:Ga photoconductor arrays (stressed and unstressed) with 16{\texttimes}25 pixels, each, and two filled silicon bolometer arrays with 16{\texttimes}32 and 32{\texttimes}64 pixels, respectively, to perform integral-field spectroscopy and imaging photometry in the 60-210 $\mu$m wavelength regime. In photometry mode, it simultaneously images two bands, 60-85 $\mu$m or 85-125 $\mu$m and 125-210 $\mu$m, over a field of view of {\textasciitilde}1.75{\textquoteright}{\texttimes} 3.5{\textquoteright}, with close to Nyquist beam sampling in each band. In spectroscopy mode, it images a field of 47{\^a}{\texteuro} {\texttimes} 47{\^a}{\texteuro}, resolved into 5{\texttimes}5 pixels, with an instantaneous spectral coverage of {\textasciitilde}1500 km s-1 and a spectral resolution of {\textasciitilde}175 km s-1. We summarise the design of the instrument, describe observing modes, calibration, and data analysis methods, and present our current assessment of the in-orbit performance of the instrument based on the performance verification tests. PACS is fully operational, and the achieved performance is close to or better than the pre-launch predictions.",
