摘要
The Silicon Tracker(STK) is one of the detectors of the DAMPE satellite used to measure the incidence direction of high energy cosmic rays.It consists of 6 X-Y double layers of silicon micro-strip detectors with 73728 readout channels.It is a great challenge to read out the channels and process the huge volume of data in the harsh environment of space.1152 Application Specific Integrated Circuits(ASIC) and 384 ADCs are used to read out the detector channels.192 Tracker Front-end Hybrid(TFH) modules and 8 identical Tracker Readout Board(TRB)modules are designed to control and digitalize the front signals.In this paper,the design of the readout electronics for the STK and its performance are presented in detail.
