onsemi C-SERIES silicon photomultiplier sensors
C-Series sensors are available in 1 mm, 3 mm and 6 mm sizes and a variety of microcell sizes
C-Series silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) sensors from onsemi feature industry-leading low dark count rates of 30 kHz/mm2, in combination with exceptional breakdown voltage uniformity of ±250 mV. The high photon detection efficiency (PDE) extends far into the blue part of the spectrum using a CMOS process.
C-Series sensors are available in 1 mm, 3 mm and 6 mm sizes and a variety of microcell sizes. They are packaged in a tileable molded lead frame (MLP) package that is compatible with industry standard, lead-free, reflow soldering processes.
