Description
Beam-lines supported by the EUDET, AIDA and AIDA-2020 projects provided a standard hardware and software interface for triggering and synchronization between any beam-telescope installed on the beam-line. The hardware used is called a Trigger/Timing Logic Unit (TLU).
The AIDA-Innova project will provide a new TLU with a higher specification than the existing EUDET and AIDA(-2020) TLUs while maintaining a backward compatible hardware interface.
The most important upgrade is improving the timing resolution from O(1ns) to O(10ps).
Initial specifications for the AIDA-Innova TLU are discussed together with plans for implementation.
