| Popis: |
A digital readout system for the CPLEAR electromagnetic calorimeter is described. The calorimeter is composed of 2.5 m long ministreamer tubes and pick-up strip boards interleaved with lead converter sheets. The Fastbus standard is used throughout for the electronics. A novelty is the utilisation of daisy-chain lines for the fast block transfer mode. A total of 64 000 channels requires 42 Fastbus (front-end) crates to house the 1000 front-end modules, each containing 64 channels. Modern design techniques have been used to achieve the required performance, including the development of two application specific integrated circuits (ASICs) using CMOS gate arrays. |
