      abstract     = {On a very fundamental level, particle detectors share
                      similar requirements for their read-out chain. This is
                      reflected in the way that typical read-out solutions are
                      developed, where a previous design is modified to fit
                      changes in requirements. One of the two common approaches is
                      the current-based read-out, where the waveform of the sensor
                      output is sampled in order to later extract information in
                      the central processing unit. This approach is used in many
                      detector applications using scintillation based detectors,
                      including PET. With this contribution, we will introduce how
                      we use Matlab in order to simulate the read-out electronics
                      of particle detectors. We developed this simulation approach
                      as a base for our ongoing development of software-defined
                      read-out Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs)
                      that cover the requirements of a variety of particle
                      detector types. Simulink was chosen as a base for our
                      developments as it allows simulation of mixed-signal systems
                      and comes with built-in toolkits to aid in developments of
                      such systems. With our approach, we want to take a new look
                      at how we approach designing such a read-out, with a focus
                      on digital signal processing closer to the sensor in order
                      or reduce transmission bandwidth, making use of known signal
                      characteristics and modern methods of communications
                      engineering. We are taking into account the time profile of
                      an event, the bandwidth-limiting properties of the sensor
                      and attached electronics, digitization stages and finally
                      the parameterization of approaches for digital processing of
                      the signal. We will show how we are applying the design
                      approach to the development of a read-out for the proposed
                      SHiP SBT detector, which is a scintillation based detector
                      relying on SiPMs sensors, using this as an example for our
                      modelling approach and show preliminary results. Given the
                      similarity in principle, the modelling approach could easily
                      be modified for PET systems, allowing studies of the
                      read-out chain to possibly gain in overall performance.},
