摘要
X-ray CCDs have poor timing resolution of several seconds. Since the pixel rate is limited to keep readout noise low, we develop an application specific integrated circuits (ASIC) for multi-readout of X-ray CCDs in order to make the readout circuits small and the power consumption low. Our ASIC with the size of 3 mm x 3 mm has four channels, each channel converts the CCD outputs to 12 bits data employing a delta-sigma(Delta Sigma) digitization. The fabrication process is a 0.35 mu m CMOS technology provided by Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC). The equivalent input noise is about 34 mu V and the power consumption is about 70mW per chip at the pixel rate of 44 kHz. When we use the X-ray CCD whose sensitivity is 3.5 mu V/e(-), the equivalent noise charge is 10 e(-) and the energy resolution is 164 eV(FWHM) at 5.9 keV.
