Either one or two DSPs are mounted onto VME boards, WS2126. VME-to-VME data transfer utilizes SHARC links (33.7 MB/s of measured transfer rate), routed onto a front panel of the WS2126 by I/O piggy pack modules, WS9002. The system has been designed for readout of 81,920 FADC ( ash analog-to-digital converter) channels at a maximum trigger rate of 500 Hz. This system could be accomplished in a compact setup of four FADC readout VME crates and one master-control VME crate (for event-building and run-control). The system was tested for readout of the BELLE silicon vertex detector (SVD).

متن کاملA novel FRS Data Acquisition
In the experiments involving the use of in-flight radioactive beams the selectivity and the detection of the rare products are very demanding. Using faster processing and data acquisition (DAQ) is also important and can be crucial for the realization of those experiments that otherwise may require a non realistic beam time. In particular, here we concern with experiments which can be performed ...

In this paper we report the development of the data acquisition system (DAQ) of the CANGAROO-III imaging Cherenkov telescope. Multi-pixel cameras at the prime focus of the first and second 10m telescopes consist of 552 and 427 PMTs, respectively. The charge from each PMT is measured with a ADC and the time each PMT is triggered is measured by a TDC with a time resolution of 1 ns. Since these mo...
