Development of the XPAD3 X-ray Photon Counting Imager DAQ Electronics

摘要

Experiments on high flux and high brilliance third generation synchrotron X-ray sources and on low dose photon counting cone beam micro-CT imaging require detectors with large surface, high count rates, large counter dynamics, adjustable energy threshold and last but not least fast readout system. The XPAD3 X-ray photon counting imager is a large-surface (12 × 7.5 cm~2) hybrid pixel detector with fast data readout electronics.
