AVM16 - 16 channel VME 12 bit x 160 MHz ADC
AVM16 - 16 channel VME 12 bit x 160 MHz ADC
AVM16 (VME version) and AVX16 (VXS version) are 16 channel 12 bit flash ADC’s equipped with 5 FPGAs for data preprocessing.
The feature extraction FPGA modules allow to compute pulse integrals (also for overlapping pulses), measure and subtract pedestals, extrapolate pulse arrival times with 1.5 ns resolution, extract maxima and minima of the signal and disentangle pile up events in real time
Main features
- 16 channel 12bit/160MHz digitizer in VME,
- LEMO or flat cable input, +/- 1V default input voltage, baseline shift
- 10Hz - 100 MHz band width for DC coupled version, 200kHz – user limited band width for AC coupled version
- Event buffering, 4 buffers of 1024 samples (6.4us) for 16 channels
- VME Addressing modes: A24/D16, A24/D32, A32/D16, A32/D32, AD64, BLT, MBLT
- Internal or external clock
- Internal or external trigger
- 16 channel 12bit/160MHz digitizer in VME, works on VME/VME64, VME430 (except AVX16), VME64x and VXS crates
- LEMO or flat cable input, +/- 1V default input voltage range, baseline shift
- 10Hz - 100 MHz band width for DC coupled version, 200kHz – user limited band width for AC coupled version
