Digitizer
5560 Family
CAEN recently opened the doors of its R&D to the open FPGA technology, which is becoming more and more widely used and required. In addition, we decided to invest many resources in order to make this technology accessible to everyone. These efforts result in the brand new x5560 Programmable Digitzer family and the SCI-Compiler software for easy-programming of the open FPGA.

Digitizer
720 Family
The 720 is a family of CAEN Waveform Digitizer able to perform basic waveform recording and run online advanced algorithms (DPP) of charge integration and pulse shape discrimination. Data is read by a Flash ADC, 12-bit resolution and 250 MS/s sampling rate, which is well suited for mid-fast signals as the ones coming from liquid or inorganic scintillators coupled to PMTs or Silicon Photomultipliers. In the waveform recording mode, algorithms of zero suppression are also implemented to reduce the data throughput.

Digitizer
724 Family
The 724 is a family of CAEN Waveform Digitizer able to perform basic waveform recording and run online advanced algorithms (DPP) of pulse height analysis and dynamic acquisition window. Data is read by a Flash ADC, 14-bit resolution and 100 MS/s sampling rate, which is well suited for high resolution detectors as Silicon, HPGe or inorganic scintillators like NaI or CsI coupled with Charge Sensitive Preamplifers. In the waveform recording mode, algorithms of zero suppression are also implemented to reduce the data throughput. The acquisition can be channel independent and it is possible to make coincidence/anticoincidence logic among diferent channels and external veto/gating. Multiple boards can be synchronized to build up complex systems.
