The CMOS signal processing electronics are placed inside the deep-n-well. PMOS are placed
directly inside n-well, NMOS transistors are situated in their p-wells that are embedded in the n-well as
well.

Strong points
•
•
•
1) CMOS in-pixel electronics
2) Good SNR
3) Fast signal collection
–
•
4) Thinning possible
–
•
Standard technology without any adjustment is used
Many industry relevant applications of HV CMOS technologies assure their long tern
availability
6) High tolerance to non-ionizing radiation damage
–
–
•
Since the charge collection is limited to the chip surface, the sensors can be thinned
5) Price and technology availability
–
–
•
Theoretically 40ps
High drift speed
Short drift path
7) High tolerance to ionizing radiation
–
–
–
Deep submicron technology
Radiation tolerant design can be used
Radiation tolerant PMOS transistors can be used (in contrast to MAPS with high-resistance
substrate)

Drawbacks
•
1) Capacitive feedback
–
–
–
–
•
must be taken into account when the pixels are designed and simulated.
In some cases the capacitive feedback can be of use, for instance if provides a feedback
capacitance for the charge sensitive amplifier.
Despite some limitations, we can implement the majority of important pixel circuits in
CMOS, like the charge sensitive amplifier, shaper, tune DAC, SRAM…
CMOS logic gates in pixels should be avoided – current mode logic can be used
instead
2) Relatively large size of the collecting electrode
–
–
–
However the high voltage deep n-well has relatively small area capacitance.
Typical values for the total n-well capacitance are from 10fF (small pixels and simple pixel
electronics) to 100fF larger CMOS pixels.
Despite of the capacitance, we achieve excellent SNR values.

Radiation tolerance
•
•
We expect a good tolerance to non-ionizing damage thanks to the small drift distance
and high drift speed in the depleted area. Due to high dopant density the type
inversion should occur at higher fluencies.
Concerning the ionizing damage, we can benefit from the properties of the used deep
submicron CMOS technology. In contrast to the most of the MAPS, we can rely on
PMOS transistors inside pixels that are more radiation tolerant than NMOST.

Summary

We have developed a new pixel sensor structure (smart diode array) for
high energy physics that can be implemented in a high voltage CMOS
technology.
The sensor has 100% fill-factor and can have in-pixel electronics
implemented with p- and n-channel transistors.
We have implemented the sensor structure in various variants:
1) Sensor with in-pixel hit detection and sparse readout,
2) Sensor with fast rolling-shutter readout and simple pixel electronics,
3) Hybrid sensor based on capacitive chip to chip signal transfer.
We measure excellent SNR in all three cases.
We have done a test-beam measurement with the first version of the frame
readout detector with good results.
The SNR of the second chip version is four times better.
Excellent seed pixel SNR of almost 100 has been achieved.
We have irradiated the chips with neutrons, protons and x-rays to test
radiation tolerance.
After irradiation with protons up to very high fluence 1015 neq/cm2 and dose
300MRad, we have still very large SNR (>40) for high energy beta particles
at nearly room temperatures (10C).

Outlook
•
•
•
•
The engineering run in the used technology costs only 98k €
By proper arrangement of the dices, we can obtain long monolithic multireticle sensors with 12cm length and 1cm width
We would have 8 such modules per wafer and one engineering run could
give us up to 48 modules
We are confident that the sensor technology has achieved such a degree of
maturity so that it can be considered as a good candidate for future particle
physics experiments
