Abstract :
Nowadays promising digital detecting systems of the Medipix family are available and make possible real time imaging with high sensitivity and broad dynamic range. Following the USB1 based read-out interface for Medipix detectors we have developed a new and improved version. This new interface is digital signal processor driven, equipped with 128 MB of DDR2 memory, USB2.0 interface and 1 Gbps ethernet adapter. It supports all chips and communication modes (serial and parallel) at the highest frequencies supported by the chip itself.
