Future developments The present system is based on DCD and DHP DEPFET output signal consists to 80% of pedestal dispersion and 20% of particle signal To reduce amount of dispersion, offset DAC is used in DCD ADC signal has in best case equal amount of particle signal and dispersion DHP tasks: 1 Particle signal processing 2 Offset correction Offset DAC memory in DHP Digital offset correction in DHP MIP signal 50% Pedestal dispersion 50% Zero suppression Lossless data transfer Frame memory MIP signal 20% Pedestal dispersion 80% DHP 8 bit Memory 2 bit Memory
Future developments In the case of lower readout speed, double sampling in DCD can be used to reduce pedestal dispersion DHP tasks: Mainly particle signal processing MIP signal >95% Zero suppression Lossless data transfer Frame memory MIP signal 20% Pedestal dispersion 80% DHP 8 bit Memory Double sampling
Future developments For higher speed we can store offset correction bits on DCD and use a high resolution DAC The signal entering the amplifier consists mostly on particle signal Easy implementation of non linear amplifier is wide dynamic range is requires DHP tasks: Mainly particle signal processing DCD is reused for all applications DHP is redesigned for every particular application, depending on the needs MIP signal > 95% Zero suppression Lossless data transfer Frame memory MIP signal 20% Pedestal dispersion 80% DHP 8 bit Memory Memory 8 bit
Amplifier with non linear response For applications with signals in wide range, non linear amplifier is better High gain for weak signals, low gain for strong signals Important: such a circuit works only if the input is free from pedestal dispersion The most flexible solution: use a high resolution DAC for the pedestal correction 1.1V LP 8b DAC
