Popis: | International audience; This paper updates the development of a warm front-end electronics (WFEE) dedicated to cryogenic sensors readout. It belongs to the X-ray integral field unit instrument of ESA's future space observatory: ATHENA. This instrument integrates cryogenic elements such as 3168 transition edge sensors as detectors, multiplexed into 96 channels using time-division multiplexing (TDM). One TDM channel will be read out by two stages of superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID), followed by a WFEE and finally, a digital readout system, both two last stages operating at about 300 K. In the WFEE, 96 TDM channels will be distributed in 48 application-specific integrated circuits (ASIC). Each channel includes one low-noise amplifier to amplify the multiplexed signal and 5 configurable current sources to bias the SQUIDs and TES in the cryogenic stages. Additionally, two channels within the same ASIC share a serial bus "RS485/(IC)-C-2" to configure the current sources (current SlowDACs) and housekeeping elements that monitor the temperature, current and voltage of the ASIC. The ASIC presented in this paper, "AwaXe_v3" (AwaXe: Athena Warm Asic for the X-ifu Electronics), is developed for the WFEE using an AMS 350 nm SiGe BiCMOS technology. It is the first prototype of the WFEE integrating two complete TDM channels. Representative measurement results that characterise the main components of the WFEE will be discussed in this paper as an update on the use of ASIC for the TES/SQUID readout. |
