Wafer Material 4” high resistivity FZ wafers <100> or <111> (preferred <100> for dicing reasons) Resistivity: 4-8 kΩcm n-type, phosphorous doped Thickness: 200 m Bow: < 30 m to comply with flip chip bonding requirements
Operation parameters Depletion voltage: < 30 V Operation voltage: > 300-500 V Breakdown voltage: > 500 V Dark current @ operation voltage: < 8 nA/cm2 at 20 °C (approximately 150 nA for full size sensor) Multi-guard structure for sensor: according to FBK, the 12 guard rings option is most suitable for high voltage operation Distance between last active pixel edge and scribe line is 1.17 mm
