Fully-Integrated Active-Quenching Circuit for Single-Photon Detection
A monolithic active-quenching and active-reset circuit is presented, designed for avalanche photodiodes that detect single-photons by operating above the breakdown voltage (VB) in a digital mode, known as SPAD's. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first fully-integrated circuit of this kind ever reported. It operates with any existing SPAD, also with very high VB, since the quenching pul...
متن کاملAn integrated active-quenching circuit for single-photon avalanche diodes
We introduce the first integrated active quenching circuit (I-AQC) that drives an avalanche photodiode (APD) above its breakdown voltage, in order to detect single photons. Based on the I-AQC, we developed a compact and versatile photon-counting module suitable for applications in which very weak optical signals have to be detected, as for instance, photon correlation spectroscopy, luminescence...
متن کاملTeaching Custom Integrated Circuit Design and Verification
Custom design of integrated circuits is required for the development of digital standard-cell and bit-slice libraries, analog circuits, and other specialized circuits that are not commercially available. Teaching students the design and verification flow at this physical level is valuable in that it provides the understanding and skills they will need to perform these functions in their subsequ...
متن کاملDynamic Range Single-Photon Avalanche Diode with Active Quenching Circuit in 130 nm CMOS Technology
Single-photon avalanche diodes with active and passive quenching circuits are fabricated on a 130 nm CMOS platform and analyzed with respect to saturation behavior at high photon rates.
متن کاملActive Matrix Driving and Circuit Simulation
1.1 Equivalent circuit of a pixel in LCDs The equivalent circuit of a pixel operated by active matrix driving is shown in Fig. 1. Data lines are connected to a data driver for generating the signal pulses for the picture data. Scan lines are connected to a scan driver for generating the scan pulses which enable the addressing driving. Vsig and Vg are applied to the data lines and scan lines, re...
