The concept of active pixel sensor based on depleted P-channel FET (DEPFET) has been developed to cope with the emerging requirements of low noise and speed. The DEPFET detector/amplifier [1], thanks to an intrinsic low anode capacitance, can provide excellent energy resolution and fast readout at t

The 64 channel ASTEROID ASIC has been developed to readout DEPFET Macro-Pixel Arrays operated in source follower mode. In particular ASTEROID will be coupled with the DEPFET Macro-Pixel sensors designed for the X-ray astronomy application BepiColombo. This is a satellite-based mission that requires
At X-ray synchrotron facilities, scattering experiments require detectors with a large sensitive surface, an high count rate capability, a large counter dynamics, a fast readout system and an adjustable energy threshold. X-ray pixel chip with adaptable dynamics (XPAD3) is a new pixellized photon det
