Progress in X-ray astronomy is impossible without progress in X-ray detector technology. Currently, semiconductor X-ray detectors provide the best performance in terms of time and energy resolution. This paper presents a description of three types of semiconductor detectors, their sensitive elements, and specialized signal processing integrated circuits for the Spektr-RG and Gamma-400 projects and the MVN (All Sky Monitor) space experiment.
