tdoA has ~2ns jitter

Leading edges of all signals within 30ns

Trigger board : CAEN V1495

Design & Programmation of the FPGA done by Christophe Flouzat« Conduct of operations » :

• All signal sampled at 400 MHz (2.5ns)• Individual delays applied• Logic function realized• Output of signals on 2 lemo & 64 LVDS

Oscilloscope triggered by the finger trigger signal

Scope triggeredby hodoscopes signals

Conclusions

Trigger board :• Design validated

• Jitter of AiBj coincidence is ~2.5 ns (due to the sampling)• Each coincidence can be aligned in time

Open possibility• 32 spare inputs for Forward Hodoscopes if needed• 64 outputs can be used for further processing

Needs commissionning with beam …
