Technical features

The ChipSense™ products family allows professional and consumer electronics OEMs to integrate real-time, low-cost, contactless, and non destructive (bio)materials analysis capabilities directly into their products.

Key Features:

  • Broad Wavelength Range (500 nm – 1700 nm): its unique InGaAs photodetector implementation provides a significantly broader range, unlike traditional InGaAs or silicon-based systems limited to 1050 nm.
  • High Signal-to-Noise Ratio (typically 80 dB): achieving a significantly higher signal-to-noise ratio than other solutions by integrating InGaAs photodetectors with filters, thereby ensuring precise and accurate predictive results.
  • Multi-Channel, Multi-Peak Architecture: ChipSense™ features a 16-channel, 4-peaks-per-channel design simultaneously generates rich datasets which combined with ML/AI enable accurate classification and quantification of (bio)materials.
  • High Reproducibility and Low Cost: its small footprint (2x2mm) and standard solid state semiconductor fabrication process makes it suitable for high-volume applications.
