XGCSA - The smallest Charge Sensitive Amplifiers for radiation detectors

The XGCSA are the new XGLAB’s family of Charge Sensitive Amplifiers designed to read different types of solid-state photodetectors with selectable polarity. They are available in two different package options, QFN12 (Q) and PSOIC16 (S) and cover three different detector capacitance ranges.

Main characteristics

  • Polarity: electrons or holes collection, selectable
  • Supply voltages: ±2.5 V and -6 V
  • Detector capacitance: see Table 1
  • Feedback capacitance: 50 fF / 150 fF / 500 fF
  • ENC: 25e- @ 1µs
  • Reset: continuous or pulsed

Applications

  • X and Gamma rays spectroscopy
  • Particle physics experiments
  • PIN diodes
  • CdTe or CZT detectors
  • High purity germanium detectors
  • Strip detectors
