Share This Post
Canon has introduced an ultra-small single photon avalanche diode (SPAD) sensor capable of the world’s highest resolution of 3.2 megapixel (MP) with high sensitivity in low-light environments. This SPAD sensor is developed by Canon’s proprietary pixel architecture that enables to detect phones more efficiently across the entire SPAD pixel region. This Canon LBC010 features 3.2 MP resolution, 6.39 µm pixel pitch*, stacked back-illuminated (BI) direct-time of flight (d-ToF) SPAD LiDAR sensor extracted from the Canon MS-500 camera.
This report provides a detailed analysis into the structure of the Canon LBC010 SPAD die. The analysis includes structural and material analysis and details of the structural dimensions, which are used to manufacture the image sensor and image signal processor (ISP) and a summary of the salient features observed.
