Development of an FPGA-Based Readout System and Functional Characterization of a Custom NSX1 ASIC for X-ray instrumentation

We developed an FPGA-based readout system for a front-end ASIC (NSX1) with 64 channels to read out a large- area silicon drift detector used in X-ray detection instruments such as the Wide Field Monitor module for the STROBE-X mission concept. The FPGA acts as a central controller for the NSX1 confi
