  36. Pixel difference readout vs standard readout • + Differential readout – immune against pickup – operation without DKS possible, no need for common mode correction • + 2X less ADC channel needed • + doubled conversion speed by the same number of ADC cores • + if used without DKS sampling speed can be doubled • + compatible with standard readout • - lost hits when both coupled pixels generate the same signal • - by one reduced number of bits (7 vs 8 bits) • - in the case of used DKS, larger noise by 1.41
