Objectives

Today there is no solution in Europe for high speed AFE (analogue front end) to process and digitalize Complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) output signal.The objective of this activity is to design, manufacture and test a high speed and high resolution encoder for CMOS detector meeting EO requirements with the following characteristics:16 bits10-20 Mpps

Description

The main tasks will be:-design-Foundry-Test of performances with existing CMOS detectors-Radiation tests
