  • Single-Ended to Differential signals compact converter

  • 32 analog input channels on MCX connectors

  • Positive or negative input signals

  • Input Dynamic: 2 Vpp

  • Programmable DC offset

  • Differential Output on a single 68-pin VHDCI connector, carrying converted signals and control lines

The CAEN Mod. DT5550AFE is a useful single-ended to differential adapter, specifically designed to interface with the DT5550 board, the CAEN Data Acquisition System with User Programmable FPGA and Sequencer.

It has 32 analog inputs on MCX connectors with 2 Vpp input dynamic, programmable DC offset, fixed 1x gain and input selectable impedance between 1 kΩ and 50Ω. The DT5550AFE receives the single-ended signals on the 32 MCX connectors available on the front panel and provides the differential analog outputs and control lines on a single VHDCI connector, on the rear panel. The converted signals can be carried out by a single VHDCI cable to the DT5550 analog differential input.

The DT5550AFE does not use programmable components: it can be placed near the detectors even in high radiation regions, in order to easily connect the single-ended signals to the DT5550 board for digitization and pulse processing purposes.
