We have been developing event-driven SOI Pixel Detectors, named `XRPIX' (X-Ray soiPIXel) based on the silicon-on-insulator (SOI) pixel technology, for the future X-ray astronomical satellite with wide band coverage from 0.5 keV to 40 keV. XRPIX has event trigger output function at each pixel to acquire a good time resolution of a few $\mu \rm s$ and has Correlated Double Sampling function to reduce electric noises... (read more)
