Analog CDS on pixel: possible way to limit the integration time, effective use of a trigger) - Slow integration clock (1MHz 640 µs integration time): low dissipation, comfortable stabilisation time of the on-pixel amplifier after Power_On - Readout of all pixels after trigger only: no need for perfect internal readout chain compensation - External compensation, global correction (common mode) possible: limited risk for experimental “unknown” factors - Lower signal amplitude dispersion: less power, smaller digitisation precision required (~8bits) S1 vbias AVDD Read1 pwr_on output1 Cs1 S2 AVDD x(5-10) Read2 output2 Cs2 gnd output1 Out BUF output2 Five different pixel arrays tested on Mimosa9 (array size 22x4 pixels for a pitch of 30µm)
