Euroball III Data Acquisition

Euroball III Data Acquisition
Euroball III Electronics

Uses integrated electronics with full software control using the VXI (VMEbus eXtensions for Instrumentation) standard.
Existing electronics from Eurogam I and Eurogam II

Ge card - total of 6 VXI cards each having 6 channels (one is a spare).
BGO card - total of 6 VXI cards each paired with a Ge card.
Clover card - total of 26 cards. Each card has 4 Ge channels (+ one spare Ge channel) and 1 BGO channel.

VXI electronics for the Cluster detectors (total of 15 sets)

Ge card - 7 channels plus 1 spare channel (2 energy + 1 timing parameters per channel)
BGO card - 18 channels plus 1 spare channel (energy and timing parameters per channel) and 1 "sum" channel (3 parameters)

A PPADC channel is under development which could be used in the future to replace the ADCs on the Ge card. This would be a third card per detector.
The Neutron detectors are planned to have VXI cards (50 channels with 8 channels/card) and the Si ball (at least 42 channels) may use VXI.
