On-Semi/Sensl Application notes AND9772 and AND9778 proposes "signal driven multiplexing"(SDM) for combined readout of multi-pixel SiPM with better behaviour than pure parallelling. SDM works by feeding the fast signal of the SiPM to the center pin of a series of two small signal Shottky diodes forward biases at around probably 0.1 to
1mA. One end of the series diode goes to ground, the other ends are connected to each other of these pixel circuits. I see these forward biased diode mostly resistors, resulting from the smal signal differential resistance eround 40 ... 400 Ohm.Things one has to consider with SiPMs mostly are dark pulses and encrease time constants for the usefull pulses cause by internal and external RC.
Does such a circuit promise real improvement?
