Caption: Full scale 512 pixel x 512 pixel DEPFET sensor from the Athena/WFI pre-flight production mounted on a detector board. Blocks of eight readout ASICs (right) and eight control ASICs (left), each operating 64 columns or 64 rows, respectively, can be seen connected to the sensor. The WFI instrument will use 2x2 of these detectors to fill the 40 arcmin x 40 arcmin field of view.
