DESCRIPTION

· The Broadcom AFBR-S4N22P014M is a single-channel silicon photomultiplier (SiPM) array designed for ultra-sensitive precision measurements of single photons.

· Based on NUV-MT technology, it offers improved photo-detection efficiency (PDE), reduced dark count rate, and minimized crosstalk compared to NUV-HD technology.

· Features a SPAD pitch of 40 μm and can be tiled for larger coverage areas.

· Encapsulated in a highly transparent epoxy clear mold compound, ensuring mechanical stability and broad response in the visible light spectrum with high sensitivity in the blue and near-UV regions.

· Ideal for detecting low-level pulsed light sources, including Cherenkov or scintillation light from organic and inorganic scintillator materials.

· Lead-free and compliant with RoHS standards.

FEATURES

· High PDE of 63% at 420 nm.

· 4-side tileable with high fill factors.

· Cell pitch of 40 μm.

· Highly transparent epoxy protection layer.

· Operating temperature range from –20°C to +60°C.

· Excellent SPTR and CRT performance.

· Uniform breakdown voltage and gain across devices.

· Compliant with RoHS, CFM, and REACH standards.

APPLICATIONS

· X-ray and gamma-ray detection.

· Nuclear medicine.

· Positron emission tomography.

· Safety and security applications.

· Physics experiments.

· Cherenkov detection.
