The objective of this PhD fellowship is to design and develop, with the help of the electronics engineering group at I3M (Institute for Instrumentation in Molecular Imaging), the electronics system of a PET (Positron Emission Tomography) scanner.
At I3M there is a strong electronics group specialized in electronics systems for PET scanners.The candidate will join that group and will work for his PhD thesis in the design and development of a new inexpensive electronics system that is currently being developed.
.The tasks to be performed include the study of different ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits), to design and develop an electronic board to read that ASIC.
The design and development of the whole Data Acquisition System. To perform tests at the lab with PET emitting isotopes. .Requirements of the new electronics system:
- It should be scalable, i.e., it should be able to incorporate more detection modules into the scanner, even for a Total Body PET..
- It should provide a data compression at the detector level in order to avoid sending lots of information to the computer.
- The trigger system should eliminate false coincidence events early on in the acquisition chain. .
Requirements of the PhD student:
- He/she should be either an electronic engineer or a physicist with knowledge on electronics design and implementation.
- The candidate should be familiar the most important software design packages, such as SPICE, ORCAD, VIVADO/ISE, Altium Designer, VHDL, Verilog, etc.
