Hamamatsu launches a new sensor series

The Si APD S17353 Series sensor has been designed for enhanced low light measurement

Japanese sensor specialist Hamamatsu has launched the Si APD S17353 Series sensors, designed for high sensitivity and low noise performance in applications spanning a wide wavelength range from short wavelengths to 800nm.

These advanced sensors are ideal for low-light measurement and analysis instruments, according to the company, making them a good addition to industry's analytical tools.

The new S17353 Series features six distinct models, all engineered to offer improved signal-to-noise ratios and exceptional sensitivity and are suited to spectroscopy, analytical chemistry and industrial applications. 

Key features:    

– High sensitivity and low noise performance from short wavelengths to 800 nm
– Enhanced gain and photosensitivity, with typical photosensitivity of 0.44 A/W
– A versatile selection of six products, each offering different photosensitive area sizes, packages and dark current types.

Hamamatsu Photonics envisages these APDs to be particularly interesting to research and development professionals and engineers in analytical and industrial domains where low-light measurements or analysis are required.
