Analog and Digital Electronics for Detectors

چکیده
Electronics are a key component of all modern detector systems. Although experiments and their associated electronics can take very different forms, the same basic principles of the electronic readout and optimization of signal-tonoise ratio apply to all. This chapter provides a summary of front-end electronics components and discusses signal processing with an emphasis on electronic noise. Because of space limitations, this can only be a brief overview. A more detailed discussion of electronics with emphasis on semiconductor detectors is given elsewhere [1]. Tutorials on detectors, signal processing and electronics are also available on the world wide web [2]. The purpose of front-end electronics and signal processing systems is to

Design of analog-to-digital converters for energy-sensitive hybrid pixel detectors
An important feature of hybrid semiconductor pixel detectors is the fact that detector and readout electronics are manufactured separately, allowing the use of industrial state-of-the-art CMOS processes to manufacture the readout electronics. As the feature size of these processes decreases, faster and more complex electronics can be designed and manufactured. Furthermore, most new CMOS process...
متن کاملTransition from analogue-to-digital nuclear electronics for precise gamma radiation spectroscopy: advantages and limitations
In this paper, digital signal processing for precise gamma ray spectroscopy is presented. The basis of this system is a 14bit waveform digitizer which samples the output of pre-amplifier signals directly. The advantages and limitations of the digital spectrometer compared with analog spectrometer has been tested and analyzed from precise gamma ray spectroscopy point of view. The results shows t...
متن کاملDigital System to Characterize Solid State Nuclear Track Detectors
A digital system to characterize solid state nuclear track detectors(SSNTD) has been developed. It was used in the study of two detectors and its performance evaluated by comparing the obtained results with those determined by using an analog system, already in use for such purpose. The comparison of the results together with the feasibility and rapidness in data acquisition have demonstrated t...
متن کاملPixel-Level Analog-To-Digital Converters for Hybrid Pixel Detectors with energy sensitivity
Single-photon counting hybrid pixel detectors have shown to be a valid alternative to other types of X-ray imaging devices due to their high sensitivity, low noise, linear behavior and wide dynamic range. One important advantage of these devices is the fact that detector and readout electronics are manufactured separately. This allows the use of industrial state-of-the-art CMOS processes to mak...
