157. Review of Rad Hard electronics activities at ESA

Mr Gianluca Furano (European Space Agency)

19/09/2012, 09:45

Oral

Many R&D activities are ongoing at European Space Agency to secure European industries competitiveness and non-dependence especially for what concerns EEE parts and avionics systems. Many synergies with experiences in astroparticle physics and in accelerator experiments exists, and will be presented and discussed. Future ESA flagship science mission targets the demanding Jupiter orbit, where...

149. First experience with radiation-hard active sensors in 180 nm HV CMOS technology

Daniel Muenstermann (CERN)

Oral

We explore the concept of using a deep-submicron HV CMOS process to produce a drop-in replacement for traditional radiation-hard silicon sensors. Such active sensors contain simple circuits, e.g. amplifiers and discriminators, but still require a traditional (pixel or strip) readout chip. This approach yields most advantages of MAPS (improved resolution, reduced cost and material budget,...
