MHz pixel rate deep depletion CCD

I am looking for a high-speed CCD that can be used for direct X-ray
exposure.

At the moment we are using CCDs such as the TH7895 and the TC215 with
phospher to image X-rays.  We are trying to improve the
characteristics of our camera system, so we would like to try to build
a camera around a deep depletion CCD.

Currently we are able to clock out our CCDs at a pixel rate of over 15
MHz and digitize the data with a 12-bit ADC. (With 2 outputs, the
TH7895 camera system can have a frame rate of 100 fps).

If anyone has any suggestions for a deep depletion CCD I would
appreciate hearing from you.

MIKE
