This paper describes an iterative method of per-pixel energy calibration of
hybrid pixel detectors with GaAs:Cr sensor and Timepix readout chip. A
convolution of precisely measured spectra of characteristic X-rays of different
metals with the resolution and the efficiency of the pixel detector is used for
the calibration. The energy resolution of the detector is also measured during
the calibration. The use of per-pixel calibration allows to achieve a good
energy resolution of the Timepix detector with GaAs:Cr sensor: 8% and 13% at 60
keV and 20 keV, respectively
