Abstract
A coincidence resolving time readout circuit is described. An analog SiPM sensor for detecting photons and generating an SIPM output signal is provided. An ADC is configured to provide multiple threshold values for converting the analogue SiPM output signal to digital values. A time to digital converter configured to receive multiple digital values from the ADC and timestamp the digital values.
