AbstractAbstract
[en] Silicon Photomultiplers (SiPMs) are now widely accepted photodetection replacements for photomultipler tubes (PMTs) depending on end use application. Various scintillators are also currently being developed and improved for fast neutron/gamma discrimination applications. In parallel, there is a need for compact electronics to operate as front-end systems for high density SiPM array readout and to provide particle classification. The latter is a much needed capability for neutron camera systems operating in a high gamma background environment. PSDCHIP has been designed to demonstrate these two key components. It integrates a scalable multi-channel SiPM readout front-end system and a novel fast analog pulse shape discrimination (PSD) method. The chip’s front-end system is explicitly designed for readout of SensL SiPMs, which have two outputs: a capacitively coupled fast output (FOUT) and a resistively coupled standard output (SOUT). The ASIC features a high level of programmability on-chip to allow for adaptability of the chip for use with various scintillators for a final end use application. Current targeted end use applications include neutron cameras and active neutron-tagging systems for nuclear recoil calibration work of dark matter and neutrino experiments.
