Query: Characterization of the VEGA ASIC coupled to large area
  position-sensitive Silicon Drift Detectors   Low-noise, position-sensitive Silicon Drift Detectors (SDDs) are particularly
useful for experiments in which a good energy resolution combined with a large
sensitive area is required, as in the case of X-ray astronomy space missions
and medical applications. This paper presents the experimental characterization
of VEGA, a custom Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) used as the
front-end electronics for XDXL-2, a large-area (30.5 cm^2) SDD prototype. The
ASICs were integrated on a specifically developed PCB hosting also the
detector. Results on the ASIC noise performances, both stand-alone and bonded
to the large area SDD, are presented and discussed.
