The C11209-110 is an optical measurement module capable of detecting low level light. It consists of an MPPC, a high-speed

amplifier circuit, a high-voltage circuit, and a temperature compensation circuit. Utilizing a small pixel pitch (10 μm) MPPC

allows high-speed measurement over a wide dynamic range, making the C11209-110 suitable for high-speed signal measure-

ment such as distance measurement. The C11209-110 operate just by connecting it to an external single power supply (+5 V).
