Opto-semiconductor Modules Related products and circuits that enable opto-semiconductor devices to operate at peak performance We can also provide customized products. Feel free to contact us with your request. Here at Hamamatsu Photonics, we use the unique opto-semiconductor technology that we have accumulated over the years to develop and manufacture Si photodiodes, APDs, MPPCs, image sensors, LEDs, and other opto-semiconductors. To make these optosemiconductors easier to use and more widely used, we have developed opto-semiconductor modules that combine Hamamatsu opto-semiconductor, optic,...

Optimized for optical devices and applications Supports high sensitivity, low noise, high speed, and multiple channels Circuit example Circuit mounting example 04 Mounting technology Our mounting technology combines compactness, high functionality, and low cost. Flip-chip bonding technology: A flip chip is directly bonded to a board through the use of a solder bump. Front-end IC technology: A custom first-stage analog signal processing circuit and a photosensitive area are bonded together. • COB (chip on board): A chip is directly mounted onto a board, and this results in a smaller mounting area,...

Customization example Optics Module An optics module is a custom opto-semiconductor module that consists of a photosensor, a light source, optical components (lenses, filters, etc.), circuits (analog and digital), an enclosure, and the like. We integrate our technologies to provide optics modules whose specifications meet the requirements of our customers, such as modules for blood analysis. A blood analysis device measures the light absorbance of blood and the fluorescence that results when blood reacts with reagents and is exposed to light. Blood analysis devices are used to detect the quantities...

MPPC modules Hamamatsu MPPC modules are optical measurement modules capable of measuring light over a wide range of light levels (10 orders of magnitude) from the photon-counting region up to the nW (nano watt) region. MPPC modules contain a signal amplifier circuit, a high-voltage power supply circuit, and other components needed for MPPC operation. MPPC modules operate just by connecting them to a power supply (±5 V, etc.). Analog output type (Typ. Ta=25 °C, λ=λp, unless otherwise noted) Pixel pitch Internal MPPC Noise equivalent power High-band cutoff frequency Supply voltage Temperature 40...
