NMOS linear image sensors with high IR sensitivity
S8380/S8381 series are designed to have higher sensitivity in the infrared and soft X-ray regions when compared to standard NMOS linear image sensors. The peak sensitivity wavelength is in the near IR region (λp=750 nm).
The photodiodes of S8380 series have a height of 2.5 mm and are arrayed in a row at a spacing of 50 µm. The photodiodes of S8381 series also have a height of 2.5 mm but are arrayed at a spacing of 25 µm. The photodiodes are available in 3 different pixel quantities for each series, 128 (S8380-128Q), 256 (S8380-256Q, S8381-256Q) and 512 (S8380-512Q, S8381-512Q) and 1024 (S8381-1024Q). Quartz glass is the standard window material.
