Readout Electronics for FPCCD VTX Development in 2014
Yasuhiro Sugimoto and Hisao Sato presented their research on readout electronics for FPCCD VTX in 2014. The study focused on R&D for a new interface board, clock drivers, and circuit design. They emphasized the importance of suppression of power consumption and dark current in achieving optimal performance for the 3-level clock driver. The presentation also covered the unique characteristics of inverted mode operation and H-clock with a 3-level driver. Additionally, the researchers discussed driver circuits, potential circuits utilizing specific components, and testing conducted at Shinshu University, including waveform analysis for different clock levels.

R&D in 2014 3-level clock driver New interface board for 3-level clock drivers SEABAS2 board Clock drivers Interface board CCD/AFFROC Boards
3-level clock driver Suppression of power consumption Smaller pulse height is preferable: P=fCV2 Suppression of dark current Inverted mode (VL<~-7V) is preferable to suppress surface dark current In order to achieve these two contradictory requirements, 3-level clock for horizontal register is suitable
Inverted Mode In inverted mode, holes are collected near SiO2-Si interface Neutralize dark charge (electrons) of the interface states Drastic suppression of surface dark current Energy band structure of MIS structure SiO2 Gate n-Si Ec EF Ec EF Ec EF Ei Ei Ei Ev Ev Ev Vg=0 Vg<0 Vg<<0 Flat band Depletion (Normal) mode Inverted mode
H-clock with 3-level driver Use normal mode (VL>-7V) for H-shift Use inverted mode (VL<-7V) only once per line Thv Tpwv Tpwv Tovr Thc Thc P1V P2V,TG Tpwh P1H P2H,SG Tpwr RG Tv
Driver circuit Driver cards using discrete parts Pin-compatible with present driver cards, except for one pin which selects Normal/Inverted New interface board is also necessary to make use of 3-value function
Possible circuit 2.2uF 16V Driver IC EL7156 has tri- state output Use two EL7156 with different output pulse height (different VLand VH), and enable only one Even in tri-state, transistors in EL7156 become on if Vout>VHor Vout <VL Diodes are inserted in the VHand VLline Ringing in Vout has to be avoided because it causes voltage shift in Vout due to the diodes V+ U3 2.2uF 16V 330 2.2uF 16V D1 1M U1 D2 U5 VS+ OE In G VH Out VL VS- S/L Out VS+ OE In G VH Out VL VS- U6 In D3 U2 G V- U4 2.2uF 16V 2.2uF 16V 1M Rev.0 circuit diagram
Test at Shinshu Univ. 3 (4)-level waveform (V1H>V2H>0>V2L>V1L) has been obtained
V-clock with 3-level driver 3-value clock in V-clock might suppress spurious charge Takuya Imayoshi, Master Thesis
Status Sato-san has studied the driver circuit, and made some improvements We have ordered the 3-level driver cards to a company (GND) Design of new interface board is on-going (by Sato-san) will be ordered by the end of December and delivered by the end of FY2014
