摘要：The ASIC is widely used in the field of high energy physics. Astroparticle experiments benefit from high integration, smallsize and low power consumption. In this paper an analog chip named ARCHGARD (Analog Readout Chip for High energyGamma Ray Detector) for high energy physics experiment is introduced. ARCHGARD is a readout chip, in chartered 0.35 mSiGe technology, for photomultipliers (PMT) array readout. The chip is designed for the Large High Altitude Air Shower Ob-servatory (LHAASO) project. The ASIC integrates 16 independent and auto-triggered channels with variable gain and variableshaping time. It provides analog output for charge measurement, which is performed from 1 up to 3000 photo-electrons (p.e.).The integral nonlinearity of the whole input range is less than 1% and the equivalent input noise is less than 1/10 p.e. Eachchannel has a trigger output for time measurement.

摘要：面向成像大气切伦科夫望远镜系统中使用硅光电倍增管(SiPM)探测器对宇宙线信号进行探测的需求,基于开关电容阵列(Switched Capacitor Array,SCA)波形数字化技术结合多增益处理技术,设计了相应的前端读出电子学系统原型,实现了在大动态范围内对SiPM探测器信号的读出,并根据信号的全波形信息完成了对信号的时间及电荷测量。本工作在介绍电子学系统原型设计方案和基本结构的基础上,对其进行了测试,检验了其各项性能指标。初步测试结果表明,该电子学系统原型在5~8000光电子(Photon Electron,P.E.)动态范围内的时间测量精度好于800 ns RMS;在5 P.E.处电荷测量精度好于30%;在8000 P.E.处电荷测量精度好于3%,均满足应用需求。
