Description
The NA62 experiment at CERN SPS accelerator studies the ultra-rare decays of charged kaons. The high-resolution Liquid Krypton (LKr) electromagnetic calorimeter is a key component of the experiment photon-veto system. The LKr readout system comprises 14 thousand 14-bit ADC acquisition channels, 432×1 Gbit Ethernet data request and readout links routed to the experiment computer farm. The calorimeter Level-0 trigger is a parallel system composed of 37 boards, carrying 111 Input/Output mezzanines and 221 FPGAs devices. In this contribution we present the architecture, operation and performances of the system during the 2017 data taking.
