Sumario: | Medipix3 is a single photon‐counting pixel readout chip whose new front‐end architecture aims to eliminate the spectral distortion produced by charge diffusion in highly segmented semiconductor detectors. The chip requires area and power‐efficient reconfigurable digital counters and shift registers that can be integrated with other photon‐processing analog and digital circuits within the 55 μm×55 μm pixel area. This work proposes a configurable‐depth, programmable mode digital counter for use in Medipix3. |
