Expensive, high power consumption and large board size. Channel-reduction is required when using analog SiPM array. • Degradation in performances (SNR, and timing resolution) • Some applications need analog signals from individual SiPM pixels (detectors
constructed with a monolithic crystal, dMiCE detectors and etc.)
