Towards a single-photon energy-sensitive pixel readout chip: pixel level ADCs and digital readout circuitry
Unlike conventional CMOS imaging, a single photon imager detects each individual photon impinging on a detector, accumulating the number of photons during a certain time window and not the charge generated by the all the photons hitting the detector during said time window. The latest developments in the semiconductor industry are allowing faster and more complex chips to be designed and manufa...
متن کاملThe Architecture of the BTeV Pixel Readout Chip
The most striking feature of BTeV, a dedicated b physics experiment which is expected to begin running in 2008 in the new CZero interaction region of the Fermilab Tevatron, is that the experiment will use data from a pixel vertex detector to reconstruct tracks and vertices for every beam crossing. The lowest level trigger will be an impact parameter trigger designed to identify events containin...
متن کاملSingle Event Effects in the Pixel readout chip for BTeV
In future experiments the readout electronics for pixel detectors is required to be resistant to a very high radiation level. In this paper we report on irradiation tests performed on several preFPIX2 prototype pixel readout chips for the BTeV experiment exposed to a 200 MeV proton beam. The prototype chips have been implemented in commercial 0.25 μm CMOS processes following radiation tolerant ...
متن کاملReadout of GEM Detectors Using the Medipix2 CMOS Pixel Chip
We have operated a Medipix2 CMOS readout chip, with amplifying, shaping and charge discriminating front-end electronics integrated on the pixel-level, as a highly segmented direct charge collecting anode in a three-stage gas electron multiplier (Triple-GEM) to detect the ionization from Fe X-rays and electrons from Ru. The device allows to perform moderate energy spectroscopy measurements (20 %...
متن کاملDesign and Performance of the CMS Pixel Detector Readout Chip
The readout chip for the CMS pixel detector has to deal with an enormous data rate. On-chip zero suppression is inevitable and hit data must be buffered locally during the latency of the first level trigger. Dead-time must be kept at a minimum. It is dominated by contributions coming from the readout. To keep it low an analog readout scheme has been adopted where pixel addresses are analog code...
