Overview

FERS-5200 is a front‐end readout system designed for the readout of large detector arrays, such as SiPMs, multi‐anode PMTs, Silicon Strip detectors, Wire Chambers, GEMs, Gas Tubes and others. FERS‐5200 is a distributed and scalable system, where each unit is a small card that houses 64 or 128 channels. It features a detector specific Front-End interfaced to a common infrastructure that guarantees readout interfaces, slow control and synchronization. Typically, the front-end is based on ASIC chips that allow for high density, cost effective integration of multi-channel readout electronics into small size and low power modules. FERS is a flexible platform: combining the same back-end (i.e. readout architecture and interface) with different types of front-end to fit a wide range of detectors.

The A5203 (and DT5203, which is the boxed version for desktop use), part of the FERS-5200 family, is a Time-to-Digital Converter for high-resolution multi-hit time measurements that bases its functionality on the picoTDC chip (produced by CERN). The A5203B houses an additional mezzanine card with a second picoTDC chip, thus implementing a 128 channel TDC module.

Each readout channel accepts LVDS signals and measures the time stamp of both rising and falling edges with an LSB of 3.125 ps. In this way, the unit is able to reconstruct Time of Arrival (ToA) of signals as an absolute timestamp or as a ΔT with respect to a common Tref pulse. The picoTDC can also acquire Time over Threshold (ToT) information and combine it with the edge time stamp. The ToT allows for amplitude estimation, energy spectrum reconstruction, and timing walk correction. The latter permits to achieve optimal timing resolution with no need of Constant Fraction Discriminators.

The A5203 supports Common Start, Common Stop, Trigger Matching and Streaming acquisition modes. Have a look at FAQ for more details.

For small setups a single A5203 unit can be used stand alone, without any additional hardware, by simply connecting the unit to a PC via USB 2.0 or Ethernet 10/100T. For large readout systems, a flexible and scalable network of units can be created by means of the high speed optical link called TDlink that allows up to 16 FERS‐5200 units to be connected in daisy chain (ring) providing data readout, synchronization between the units and broadcasting of commands (e.g. triggers, time resets, etc.). The DT5215 is a data collector board (FERS‐CB) housing 8 TDlink masters that will make it possible to manage up to 128 FERS‐5200 units.

The A5203 is fully supported by the CAEN Janus 5203 Open Source software on Windows® and Linux®. Janus can run in console mode (C program, without graphics) or connected to a GUI written in Python. The GUI has configuration and run control panels that simplify the data acquisition management. Both console and GUI modes permits to acquire data from multiple boards, manage the event building and timing histograms (ToA and/or ToT), display data statistics (hit rate, throughput, etc…), plot histograms, and save output, including spectra and list files with the acquired timing data.

A wide range of adapters and cables has been also specifically designed for FERS-5200 boards, in order to provide versatility of choice and the ability to remotely operate the detectors, a complete list is available here.

DYNAMIC RANGE

Time measurement dynamic range in picoTDC:

  • Leading Edge only: TLEAD = 24 bits (FSR = ∼ 52 μs)*
  • Leading + Trailing Edge: TLEAD / TTRAIL = 24 bits (FSR = ∼ 52 μs)*

  • Leading + ToT11: TLEAD = 16 bits, TTOT = 11 bits (LSB size and FSR can be programmed)

 

Coarse time stamp in FPGA (56 bits @ 12.6 ns) con be combined with picoTDC data to extend the full scale range of the time measurement to a maximum dynamic of 64 bit (streaming acquisition mode).

* 26bits (FSR = ∼ 210 μs) optional

ACQUISITION MODES

Common Start:
TDC ch0 is the common start that opens the acquisition gate and represents the time reference. All other channels provide ΔT time measurements: TLEAD ΔTN = TN – T0. The gate width is programmable by software. Any hit falling outside the gate will be discarded.

Output Data: TLEAD  or  TLEAD + ToT

Common Stop:
Same as common start, but ch0 is used as a common stop that closes the acquisition gate: ΔTN = T0 – TN.

Output Data: TLEAD  or  TLEAD + ToT

Trigger Matching:
The trigger signal (typ. from T0/T1 inputs) defines an acquisition window with programmable width and offset. All hits falling into the window will be recorded. Multi-hit acquisition is supported. All time measurements are referred to the Coarse Trigger Time Stamp (LSB = 25.6 ns), while the relative time between the hits keeps the TDC timing resolution (minimum LSB = 3.125 ps).

Output Data: TLEAD or TLEAD+TTRAIL or TLEAD+ToT

Streaming:
Continuous hit recording, without any gate or trigger windowing. All hit time measurements are expressed as 64 bit time stamps (minimum LSB = 3.125 ps) and saved in the form of a sorted list.

Output Data: TLEAD or TLEAD+TTRAIL (or TLEAD+ToT , COMING SOON)

CAEN does not warrant that the CAEN Software will operate uninterrupted or be error free or that defects are correctable or will be corrected.

Any service obtained using the CAEN Software is done at the End User’s own discretion and risk, and the End User will be solely responsible for any damage to his/her computer system or loss of data that results from the download and/or use of any such material or service.

As mentioned in article 6 above, CAEN Software is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, “with all faults” and without warranty of any kind, therefore the End User acknowledges that the use of the CAEN Software shall be at its own risk and the End User waves any right to compensation for any kind of damage or loss directly or indirectly consequential to the use of the CAEN Software.

In no event shall CAEN’s total liability to the End User for all damages (other than as may be required by applicable law in cases involving personal injury) exceed the total amount of the fees paid for the CAEN Software license.

As mentioned in article 6 above, CAEN Software is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, “with all faults” and without warranty of any kind, therefore the End User acknowledges that the use of the CAEN Software shall be at its own risk and the End User waves any right to compensation for any kind of damage or loss directly or indirectly consequential to the use of the CAEN Software.

In no event shall CAEN’s total liability to the End User for all damages (other than as may be required by applicable law in cases involving personal injury) exceed the total amount of the fees paid for the CAEN Software license.

  1. Disclaimer of Warranties by CAEN

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, the CAEN Software is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, “with all faults” and without warranty of any kind.

CAEN, its licensors, and its and their affiliates disclaim all warranties, conditions, and representations (express, implied, oral, and written) with respect to the CAEN Software including without limitation all express, implied, and statutory warranties and conditions of any kind, such as title, non-interference with your enjoyment, authority, non-infringement, merchantability, fitness or suitability for any purpose (whether or not CAEN knows or has reason to know of any such purpose), system integration, accuracy or completeness, results, reasonable care, workmanlike effort, lack of negligence, and lack of viruses, whether alleged to arise under law, by reason of custom or usage in the trade, or by course of dealing.

CAEN does not warrant that the CAEN Software will operate uninterrupted or be error free or that defects are correctable or will be corrected.

Any service obtained using the CAEN Software is done at the End User’s own discretion and risk, and the End User will be solely responsible for any damage to his/her computer system or loss of data that results from the download and/or use of any such material or service.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, CAEN, its licensors, and its and their affiliates make no warranty that:

  1. the CAEN Software will operate properly;
  2. the CAEN Software will meet the End User’s system/technical requirements;
  3. the operation of the CAEN Software will be uninterrupted, bug free, or error free in any or all circumstances;

As mentioned in article 6 above, CAEN Software is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis, “with all faults” and without warranty of any kind, therefore the End User acknowledges that the use of the CAEN Software shall be at its own risk and the End User waves any right to compensation for any kind of damage or loss directly or indirectly consequential to the use of the CAEN Software.
