Notes. The table lists: the frequency, the electron multiplication (EM) gain and the horizontal shift (HS) speed. Based on these parameters, the readout noise (RON) and clock-induced charges (CIC) performance improves, at the expense of saturation level first, as the EM gain increases, and latency then, as the frequency decreases.
