FlashCam 2.0 Prototype: New DAQ system with Xilinx Zynq-Devices — •Mario Schütt — Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik, Heidelberg, Deutschland
FlashCam, a FlashADC system, has been developed and built at Max-Planck-Institut für Kernphysik in Heidelberg (MPIK). FlashCam is used in a variety of experimental setups based on different detectors like photo multipliers (PMTs) and germanium ionization detectors. For the germanium detector readout in the LEGEND 1000 experiment, the MPIK wants to develop a new Flash ADC system which is called FlashCam 2.0. The system needs a flexible design because it has to handle different pulses on different times scales like PMT pulses (ns time range) and Ge-detector pulses (mus time range). The latter also requires high precision, i.e. a 16bit resolution. Modern experiments like LEGEND are often based on single or multiple detector arrays. Thus, effective DAQ systems have to be scalable. Ease of usage and cost per channel are further crucial factors.
The talk starts with a recap of the FlashCam characteristics. The second part is a summary of the FlashCam 2.0 Prototype setup and its technical innovations. In the conclusion first application results are shown.
