A front-end electronic circuitry for an electromagnetic radiation sensor application comprises a charge sensitive amplifier stage with a first single-input operational transconductance amplifier, and a transistor being arranged in a first feedback path of the first single-input operational transconductance amplifier, and a signal shaper stage with a second single-input operational transconductance amplifier, and an active feedback circuit being arranged in a second feedback path of the second single-input operational transconductance amplifier. The front-end electronic circuitry further comprises a control circuit having a second transistor. The control circuit is configured to provide a control signal to control the transistor of the first feedback path in dependence on a gate-source voltage of the second transistor.

Front-end electronic circuitry for an electromagnetic radiation sensor application

A front-end electronic circuitry for a photon counting application includes a charge sensitive amplifier including an amplifier circuit and a capacitor being arranged in a feedback path between the input side and the output side of the amplifier circuit. A controllable switch is arranged in parallel to the capacitor. The circuitry includes a delay circuit to provide a delay circuit output signal being a time-delayed representation of the charge sensitive amplifier output signal. An output signal generation circuit is configured to generate the output signal by subtracting the delay circuit output signal from the charge sensitive amplifier output signal.
