C-Series SiPM Sensors
Silicon Photomultipliers
(SiPM), Low-Noise,
Blue-Sensitive
The C−Series low-light sensors from ON Semiconductor feature an
industry-leading low dark-count rate combined with a high PDE. For
ultrafast timing applications, C-Series sensors have a fast output that
can have a rise time of 300 ps and a pulse width of 600 ps. The
C−Series is available in different sensor sizes (1 mm, 3 mm and 6 mm)
and packaged in a 4-side tileable surface mount (SMT) package that is
compatible with industry standard, lead-free, reflow soldering
processes.
The C−Series Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPM) form a range of high
gain, single-photon sensitive, UV-to-visible light sensors. They have
performance characteristics similar to a conventional PMT, while
benefiting from the practical advantages of solid-state technology: low
operating voltage, excellent temperature stability, robustness,
compactness, output uniformity, and low cost. For advice on the usage
of these sensors please refer to the

1. All measurements made at 2.5 V overvoltage and 21°C unless otherwise stated.
2. Please consult the maximum current levels on page 6 when selecting the overvoltage to apply.
3. The breakdown voltage (Vbr) is defined as the value of the voltage intercept of a straight line fit to a plot of
√I
vs V, where I is the current and
V is the bias voltage.
4. The range where PDE > 1% at Vbr + 5.0 V.
5. Note that the PDE does not contain contributions from afterpulsing or crosstalk.
6. Dark current derived from dark count data as DC
×
M
×
q
×
(1 + CT), where DC is dark count, M is gain, q is the charge of an electron, and
CT is cross talk.
7. Measured as time to go from 10% to 90% of the peak amplitude.
8. RC charging time constant of the microcell (t)
9. Internal capacitance of the sensor. Typically add 2−3 pF for sensor in package. Listed by unique microcell size for each part version.
10. Quoted as the percentage change per degree C from the measured value at 21°C.
