Paper Abstract
A novel approach to the Gas Electron Multiplier1 (GEM) detector readout is presented. Unlike commonly used
methods, based on discriminators, and analogue FIFOs,[ the method developed uses simultaneously sampling
high speed ADCs and advanced FPGA-based processing logic to estimate the energy of every single photon.
Such method is applied to every GEM strip signal. It is especially useful in case of crystal-based spectrometers
for soft X-rays, where higher order reflections need to be identified and rejected. For the purpose of the detector
readout, a novel conception of the measurement platform was developed.
