From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Caeleste CVBA is Belgian company, supplier of custom designed, high-end, beyond state-of-the-art CMOS image sensors. The activities include custom image sensor design, the organization and outsourcing of its manufacturing and its characterization. Caeleste is the originator of many novel concepts as high-speed, low-noise image sensors, indirect X-ray detectors with photon counting, color X-ray sensors, and sub-0.5 noise electron read noise CMOS pixels.

Caeleste located in Mechelen, Belgium.

History[edit]

Caeleste was founded on December 18, 2006 by Bart Dierickx and Patrick Henckes. Originally located in Edegem, moved to Berchem in 2011, and from there to the present address in Mechelen in 2015.

Technical and scientific focus[edit]

Caeleste focuses on the design of image sensors and ROICs for following applications

  • Image sensors for scientific imaging and instrumentation
  • Medical and life science imaging, under which X-ray devices with either direct or indirect X-ray photon conversion
  • Particle detection (electrons – protons - HE particles)
  • Industrial imaging
  • Image sensors and read out ICs (ROIC) for Space missions
