Abstract

NRC has been involved in the ongoing development of the SAPHIRA infrared APD arrays from Leonardo MW. We present results from our characterization testing on the original 320x256 pixel device, including response speed at frame rates up to 1 kHz. We have also been working on the support electronics, including cryogenic preamplifiers and a readout system that is capable of operating a new 512x512 pixel, 64-output SAPHIRA device at 10 Mpx/s.
