Camera <strong>for</strong> Schwarzschild-Couder<br />

Telescope<br />

Telescope design aimed at wide FoV, high angular<br />

resolution with good <strong>of</strong>f-axis response.<br />

Demagnify<strong>in</strong>g 2-mirror design reduces plate scale<br />

allow<strong>in</strong>g MAPMTs/<strong>SiPMs</strong> and reduc<strong>in</strong>g costs<br />

below $70 per pixel allow<strong>in</strong>g much higher<br />

resolution camera at same cost.<br />

ASIC electronics with a high level <strong>of</strong> <strong>in</strong>tegration<br />

(TARGET) <strong>for</strong> cost and power reduction.<br />

Deep memory <strong>for</strong> trigger flexibility – e.g., higher<br />

multiplicity triggers <strong>for</strong> close spac<strong>in</strong>g, dynamically<br />

reprogrammable data w<strong>in</strong>dow after trigger,<br />

improved hadronic rejection by <strong>in</strong>clud<strong>in</strong>g nontrigger<strong>in</strong>g<br />

telescopes.<br />

Modular design aimed at low cost, high reliability, and<br />

ease <strong>of</strong> serviceability.<br />
