MPPC®modules C13366 series (GD type) Photon counting module for low-level-light detection, Digital output The C13366 series (GD type) are photon counting modules capable of detecting low level light. These modules consist of a thermoelectrically cooled MPPC, an amplifier, a comparator circuit, a high-voltage power supply circuit, and a temperature control circuit. The photosensitive area is available in two sizes of 1.3 × 1.3 mm and 3 × 3 mm, and the signal output is digital. Modules operate just by connecting them to an external power supply (±5 V). Features Applications Built-in TE-cooled MPPC [MPPC for precision measurement (new product)] Low-level-light measurement High sensitivity in the short wavelength range Fluorescence measurement Particle diameter measurement Built-in temperature control function Analytical instrument Low dark count Low afterpulse Digital output Structure Parameter Internal MPPC Photosensitive area size Pixel pitch Number of pixels Symbol - C13366-1350GD S13362-1350DG 1.3 × 1.3 C13366-3050GD S13362-3050DG 3×3 Unit mm μm - 50 667 3600 Absolute maximum ratings Parameter Supply voltage Operating temperature Storage temperature Symbol Vs Topr Tstg Condition Value ±6 -10 to +40 -20 to +70 No dew condensation*1 No dew condensation*1 Unit V °C °C *1: When there is a temperature difference between a product and the surrounding area in high humidity environment, dew condensation may occur on the product surface. Dew condensation on the product may cause deterioration in characteristics and reliability. Note: Exceeding the absolute maximum ratings even momentarily may cause a drop in product quality. Always be sure to use the product within the absolute maximum ratings. Electrical and optical characteristics (Typ.

This adapter allows connecting a BNC or SMA cable to the MPPC module. A10613-01 (SMB-BNC) A10613-02 (SMB-SMA) Precautions ∙ For cleaning the product, wipe using a clean, soft, dry cloth. Do not use organic solvents such as thinner and acetone. ∙ Do not cover the product with a dark cloth or something similar while the product is running. Covering the product can cause the internal temperature to rise and cause abnormal operation. 4 MPPC modules C13366 series (GD type) Lineup of MPPC modules Type no.
