Description
New solutions in the field of detector acquisition systems are presented: starting from the first ADC to bring an easy FPGA programmability, the R5560, then the first model the new generation of CAEN digitizers, the V2740, will be presented along with the Open FPGA it features.
The main technical specifications will be illustrated along with some specific use case: the LoKI experiment at ESS, that it was the first to adopt the R5560 with a customized firmware to read out its boron coated straw tubes.
Finally, an overview of the software tools available to the users will be presented, the recently developed SciCompiler and COMPASS: the first makes FPGA programming simpler thanks to a graphic interface where different logic block can be combined to create a simple firmware, the second is a readout software designed to control all CAEN digitizers taking data with DPP firmwares.
