Abstract
The space solar EUV and X ray imaging camera is the core of the solar EUV and X ray imaging telescope, which is designed to monitor and predict solar activities, such as CMEs, flare and coronal hole. This paper presents a comprehensive description of the camera, from the detector selection to the electronics system design, and gives some experiment results. The camera adopts a back illuminated X ray sensible CCD as detector and the support electronics is based on it. The electronics system should be designed according to the CCD structure. This article gives an illustration of the three modules and a software in electronics system, and offers possible solutions to some common problems in CCD camera designing. There are detailed descriptions about drivers and signal amplifing and processing Module.
