16/8 Channel 14-bit 250 MS/s Digitizer
VX1725 / VX1725S
-
The VX1725S family comes in a VME64X form factor, with 16/8 input channels. The communication to and from the board is provided through the VMEBus and Optical Link interfaces. The VX1725S is a digitizer capable of recording waveforms along with performing advanced algorithms for online digital pulse processing (DPP). Utilizing DPP Firmware, users can acquire quantitative physical parameters (Integrated Charge, Pulse Shape Discrimination with very fine time resolution, Pulse Height Analysis) as well as read out waveforms with automatic pulse identification and baseline suppression on channel basis (Zero-Length Encoding and Dynamic Acquisition Window).

Digitizer
740 Family
-
The 740 is a high channel density CAEN Waveform Digitizer family able to perform basic waveform recording and run online advanced algorithms (DPP) of charge integration. Both the elevate number of channels per board (32 for Desktop and NIM form factor, 64 for VME) and the DPP algorithm make the board a digital replacement of a traditional QDC. Data is read by a Flash ADC, 12-bit resolution and 62.5 MS/s sampling rate, which is well suited for mid-slow signals as the ones coming from inorganic scintillators coupled to PMTs, gaseous detectors and others. Sampling rate can be further reduced using the decimation feature. The acquisition can be channel independent and externally vetoed/gated. Multiple boards can be synchronized to build up complex systems.

Digitizers
-
CAEN has developed a complete family of digitizers that consists of several models differing in sampling frequency, resolution, form factor (VME, NIM, Desktop, Rack) and other features.In recent years CAEN 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 innovative Programmable Digitizer families and the SCI-Compiler software for easy-programming of the Open FPGA simplifying firmware writing with a block-based visual programming language.
