Overview

This report evaluates readout electronics performance in the Antarctic Demonstrator for APT, suggesting improvements for future space missions.

Key Points

  • The aim is to evaluate the performance of the readout electronics for the Imaging CsI calorimeter in the APT mission.
  • Development of a small-scale prototype called the Antarctic Demonstrator for APT (ADAPT).
  • Quality-control tests conducted on custom readout boards for the Imaging CsI calorimeter (ICC).
  • Integration of a SMART ASIC for the multichannel front-end electronics.
  • Quality-control tests confirmed the functionality and reliability of the readout electronics.
  • The design demonstrated compactness and cost-effectiveness while maintaining high integration levels.
  • The current status of ADAPT was outlined, supporting readiness for the upcoming flight in 2026-2027.
