The focal plane assembly consists of the four large-area P-channel CCDs abutted into a 2 × 2 array and the signal processing board including mixed-signal ASICs (applicationspecific integrated circuit). Given the focal length of 5.6 m, the four chips cover a region of 38’ × 38’ on the sky combined with the Soft X-ray Telescope. One of the advancements of SXI compared with conventional on board CCD cameras is the signal processing using mixed-signal ASICs with the function of the preamplifier and the analog-to-digital conversion. The dedicated design of the delta sigma modulators enables us to achieve high signal-to-noise ratio with the relatively small number of the transistors. It simultaneously processes the analog signals from the four readout nodes. After the verification of the performance such as the input equivalent noise, linearity, gain and radiation tolerance, we performed the quality conformance inspection test in accordance with the JAXA parts program, followed by the burn-in test for all the flight chip candidates. The dynamic burn-in test was carried out with the temperature of +115C in the duration of 200 hours to expose the initial malfunction in the mission. Pseudo CCD signals are fed into all the devices during the test. There was no trouble in functional point of view and the performance showed no change after the dynamic burn-in. The eight flight model chips have been selected and mounted on the signal processing board., 形態: カラー図版あり, Physical characteristics: Original contains color illustrations, 資料番号: AA1530003000, レポート番号: JAXA-RR-14-007}, title = {ASTRO-H衛星搭載軟X線撮像検出器(SXI)信号処理用ASICのスクリーニング}, year = {2015} }
