An improved analytical expression has been developed, also accounting for the loading effect and bandwidth limitation of the coupled front-end, through which the SiPM dynamic response can be accurately reproduced and predicted. Experimental tests on actual detection systems corroborate the SiPM model and the analytical results.STAMPAenNew Improved Model and Accurate Analytical Response of SiPMs Coupled to Read-Out ElectronicsArticle10.1109/JSEN.2015.24640772-s2.0-84961927134000366852900005https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/71749872016ISenJ..16...19MFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICA
