FPAA implementation of signal processing circuits for radiation sensors

Abstract

In this paper we present new application of FPAA (Field Programmable Analog Array) circuits for analog signal processing from radiation sensors. We used the dynamically reconfigurable FPAA AN221E04 from Anadigm for implementation of analog circuits like programmable filters and amplifiers suitable for interfacing with radiation sensors. The introductory part of the paper contains aspects regarding radiation sensors, analogue circuits for sensors interfacing and signal processing and reconfigurable analog circuits. The last part of the paper presents the implementation of filters and amplifiers with field programmable analog circuits.
