The main drift chamber (MDC) is a crucial component of large colliders. As a track detector, it requires excellent position resolution, which depends on high-precision charge and time measurements provided by the readout electronics. With the increase in the collider's center-of-mass luminosity, the counting rate of its main drift chamber also rises. Existing readout electronics systems for...

Space radiation poses a major threat during space missions. Linear energy transfer (LET) is widely used for quantitatively assessing the effects of space radiation. Space radiation is characterized by a heterogeneous composition of particle types, a broad energy spectrum, and temporal variability, making it difficult to achieve high-precision and large dynamic range real-time LET detection. In...

The Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou (HIRFL) and the future High-Intensity Heavy-ion Accelerator Facility (HIAF) are China's leading heavy-ion research centers. Gaseous detectors are widely used in experiments at HIRFL and HIAF because they are cost-effective and have a minimal material budget for tracking. To address the readout needs of high-count-rate, high-resolution gaseous...

Frontier physics explorations, such as the heavy-ion experiments at the High-Intensity heavy-ion Accelerator (HIAF) and NvDEx experiment at CJPL to search for neutrinoless double-beta decay, demand and thus propel the rapid development of new detector technologies. To address this demand, the next-generation multi-channel readout ASIC must integrate high-performance analog-to-digital...
