  12. Part 3 : History Winter Excursion (Dec ‘09) Goal • Gain some understanding of current space-experiments and satellite payloads Project 1: Modification in design, and fabrication of the casing of the Cadmium Zinc Telluride Imager, which will be flown on ASTROSAT. Project 2: Tracing the circuit of KETEK VITUS Pre-amplifier used with the Silicon Drift Detector. Modification in the casing of CZT in TIFR Project 3: Preliminary development of ground softwarefor analysis of data from the CZT Imager. Project 4: Modification of on board software to compress data from the CZT before transmission. The pre-amplifier for SDD (Detector) in PRL
