Silicon Drift Detector Readout and On-Line Data Reduction using a Fast VLSI Dedicated Fuzzy Processor

A silicon drift detector front-end and a smart readout system different from a trivial zero-suppression is proposed. On-line preprocessing, using a fast VLSI dedicated fuzzy processor, reduces significantly acquisition data volume and hardware requirements.
