The SST-1M is a 4-m diameter mirror Davies-Cotton gamma-ray telescope. It has been designed to cover the energy range above 500 GeV and to be part of an array of telescopes separated by 150-200 m. Its innovative camera is featuring large area hexagonal silicon photo-multipliers as photon detectors and a fully digital trigger and readout system. Here, the strategy and the methods for its calibration are presented, together with the obtained results. In particular, the off and on-site calibration strategies are demonstrated on the first camera prototype. The performances of the camera in terms of charge and time resolution are described.

  1. FANSIC: a Fast ANalog SiPM Integrated Circuit for the readout of large silicon photomultipliers

    physics.ins-det 2024-11 conditional novelty 5.0 of 10

    FANSIC, a 65 nm CMOS analog front-end ASIC with active summation, achieves roughly 3 ns output pulses, single-photon-level SNR, and about 5% post-calibration linearity for SiPM readout.
