Abstract:This paper presents a USB 3.0 based readout platform for real-time ion imaging applications. The front end utilizes an ion-imaging array containing 16 k ISFET pixels to capture ion diffusion at 6100 fps. Operating at 200 MHz, the chip streams ion information at a data rate of 762.94 Mb/s. The backend readout system employs a FIFO-to-USB bridge (FT601Q) that supports Super Speed (5 Gbps) to perform real-time data streaming and operates in bulk transfer mode to ensure data integrity. Implemented on a Xilinx Virt… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
