Abstract
We are developing monolithic active pixel sensors, x-ray SOIPIXs based on a Silicon-On-Insulator CMOS technology. Its event trigger output function offers a high time resolution better than ~10 usec. (1) In 2022-23, we and evaluated large sensors, XRPIX-X, with a pixel array size of 14mm x 22mm. We report its design and the results of the performance evaluation. (2) We are developing "Digital X-ray SOIPIXs" for satellite use, featuring on-chip ADCs, DACs, and BGRs for noise robustness. An on-chip clock pattern generator is also included to simplify the readout digital circuits. (3) XRPIXs are increasingly being utilized in various scientific applications beyond x-ray astronomy, and a brief introduction will be provided.
