Development of a PCI Express Based Readout Electronics for the XPAD3 X-Ray Photon Counting Image

Instrumentation and Detectors 2011-03-22 v1

Abstract

XPAD3 is a large surface X-ray photon counting imager with high count rates, large counter dynamics and very fast data readout. Data are readout in parallel by a PCI Express interface using DMA transfer. The readout frame rate of the complete detector comprising 0.5 MPixels amounts to 500 images per second without dead-time.
