Compact Lidar Digitizing Receiver (CoLiDR) Benchtop Measurements with the HDSoCv2 Waveform Digitizing ASIC

In this report we describe a novel benchtop installation of the Compact Lidar Digitizing Receiver (CoLiDR) system, which is capable of measuring the time domain waveform induced by a laser impulse on all elements of a 64 element pixelated Silicon Photomultiplier array simultaneously; while meeting a size, weight, and power requirement that is suitable for space missions on cubesats or planetary/lunar mapping projects. We will report measurements of the novel digitizing ASIC HDSoCv2, using its internal current amplifier circuit, coupled to an Onsemi 8x8 SIPM array measuring a pulsed laser synchronized to the digitizer system.
