Excelitas Technologies Introduces Its New LynX(TM) Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM) Module for Low Light Level Detection
- LynX(TM) SiPM Module offers outstanding sensitivity from near-UV to NIR wavelengths and is well-suited to demanding life sciences and analytical measurement OEM applications
WALTHAM, Massachusetts, and MONTREAL, Oct. 3, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --Excelitas Technologies, a global technology leader focused on delivering innovative, customized optoelectronics to OEMs seeking high-performance technology solutions, announced the introduction of its new Silicon Photomultiplier (SiPM) Module, under the brand name LynX™, expressly designed to meet state-of-the-art analytical measurements needs.
The LynX™ SiPM Module (LynX-A-33-050-T1-A) is a compact, easy-to-use, analogue module based on Excelitas' new C30742 Series low noise, ultra-fast timing resolution, low cross-talk SiPM chips. The LynX™ SiPM Module offers an attractive alternative to traditional Photomultiplier Tubes (PMTs) for a variety of Analytical Instrumentation and Life Sciences applications including Fluorescence measurement and Flow Cytometry.
Excelitas' LynX Silicon Photomultiplier Module consists of a single-stage TE-cooled detector head, DC-DC power supply, and a low-noise transimpedance amplifier. It contains a 3x3 mm2 active area SiPM with 50x50 um2 microcells for optimum dynamic range and photon detection efficiency (PDE).
"Excelitas' LynX™ Silicon Photomultiplier Module was designed with significant customer input and is an important new addition to our growing range of Low Light Level Detection (L3D) offerings based on high-performance solid state detectors," said Michael Ersoni, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Excelitas Technologies' global detection business.
Excelitas' LynX™ SiPM Module is available as a standard product and Excelitas also offers customized Low Light Level Detection Modules tailored to OEM application requirements.
Excelitas' new LynX™ Silicon Photomultiplier Module, Model LynX-A-33-050-T1-A, will be on display at Electronica 2012 on November 13-16 in Munich, Germany at Hall A2, booth #107, along with other photon detection products and Infrared Sensing innovations. The LynX™ SiPM Module will also be on display at ILOPE 2012, Booth #3108, on October 16-18 in Beijing, China, along with other Excelitas photon detection and IR sensing products.
