Original abstract
Next generation X-ray observatories require fast, low-noise, low-power, multi-megapixel imaging spectrometers. To meet these demands, the X-ray Astronomy and Observational Cosmology (XOC) Group at Stanford, in partnership with the MIT Kavli Institute and MIT Lincoln Laboratory (MIT-LL), is developing multi-channel X-ray charge-coupled devices (CCDs) and fast readout architectures. We report the energy resolution and noise performance achieved with a full-scale (1440x1440-pixel), 16-channel, front-illuminated MIT-LL CCD detector developed for the Advanced X-ray Imaging Satellite (AXIS) concept, the CCID-100, read out using two Multi-Channel Readout Chip (MCRC) V1 application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) chips in the new Stanford CCID-100 test setup. We describe an automated method for bias optimization on each CCD channel, and integrated debugging features of the front-end ASIC and readout system. The demonstrated performance confirms that these systems can meet the speed and noise requirements of future strategic X-ray missions.
