ams OSRAM (Korea Representative Seok-Won Kang), a global leader in intelligent sensors and emitters, is improving CT technology with an innovative sensor module, enabling accurate patient diagnosis and early detection of disease.

ams OSRAM recently announced the launch of two new sensor modules for computed tomography (CT) technology.

These sensor modules support a wide range of clinical applications from oncology to cardiovascular disease treatment, enabling accurate diagnosis and early detection of patients.

ams OSRAM has developed two new sensor modules to provide solutions for both premium CT applications and price-sensitive CT markets.

The first is a System-in-Package (SiP) sensor module for photon counting detectors that significantly reduces radiation dose and increases diagnostic value.

The second is a sensor module that provides high-quality medical images while offering a competitive price.

The AS5920M sensor module detects X-ray photons individually, which can significantly reduce radiation dose compared to conventional X-ray detectors.

This module provides ultra-high resolution and can precisely detect fine tissue structures and lesions with a pixel size nine times smaller than conventional CT.

Additionally, ams OSRAM offers a complete SiP-based solution with this innovative sensor module, enabling CT system developers to more easily integrate the sensor into their systems.

Multiple ICs and passive components are integrated into a single package, eliminating the need for external components, which also has a positive impact on the BOM (bill of materials).

The Buttable SIP (BSIP) module with a four-sided mounting design allows multiple sensor modules to be combined like a puzzle to expand the detector area according to the needs of clinical CT applications.

The AS5952M sensor module provides high performance at a low cost, increasing accessibility to CT healthcare.

The AS5952M consists of three of the latest AS5952 sensor chips in a three-sided mounting design, which improves dark current, minimizes noise, and reduces power consumption.

This module is an ideal solution for 64-slice CT systems with a 4 cm range, playing a key role in achieving high image acquisition rates and reducing motion-induced noise.

The AS5952M integrates a 256-channel analog-to-digital converter (ADC) and a photodiode array into a single monolithic package, reducing the distance between the photodiodes and the ADC, providing significant cost advantages and superior noise performance.
