Data Acquisition System for Silicon Ultra Fast Cameras for Electron and Gamma Sources in Medical Applications (Sucima Imager)

Tests of monolithic active pixel sensors at national synchrotron light source

“…The result was calculated as a difference of whole, successively acquired frames. The CDS operation was implemented in hardware in FPGA on the data acquisition board [6]. Subtraction was performed after digitization.…”

Prototypes of large-scale SOI monolithic active pixel sensors

“…For this purpose, the sensors were bonded to dedicated printed circuit boards (illustrated in Fig. 6) and tested with the ''SUCIMA Imager'' DAQ system developed at the Institute of Nuclear Physics in Krakow [4]. The ''SUCIMA Imager'' was responsible for the generation of the necessary control signals for the SOI sensor and for performing the digitization (12 bit ADC) and pre-processing of the four parallel output signals from sensor quadrants.…”

“…Such a solution allows using at least part of the detector in case there are defects in the other areas of the chip. It also increases the readout speed by allowing parallel operation and gives compatibility with the ''SUCIMA-Imager'' DAQ system [4]. Since all the peripheral elements of the readout circuit, as well as the detector guardrings, are designed only along two neighbouring sides of the quadrants, there is no dead area between detector quadrants.…”

Tritium autoradiography with thinned and back-side illuminated monolithic active pixel sensor device

“…The detector was parked on the massive copper support, cooled down to temperature $0 1C, 5 and closed opaquely inside an aluminium box. The data acquisition system was based on the SUCIMA Imager 12b, 20 Ms/s analog-to-digital conversion board [23] equipped with the USB 2.0 data transfer link and 2.66 GHz processor PC. The computer was running the dedicated software, allowing on-line reconstruction of signal clusters by processing the raw data acquired from the USB link.…”
