  • Abstract
    The context is the SVOM satellite which is a French/Chinese gamma ray bursts observatory project. One of the instruments is named ECLAIRs, an X/Gamma ray telescope going from 4 keV to 250 keV. Its detection plane, the DPIX matrix, is composed by 200 XRDPIX developed for the ECLAIRS camera, a 6400 CdTe detectors array.
