Re: Additional data
Hi Yves,
Why do you not trigger the ADC readout internally? The Struck ADC
certainly has this capability. Isn't it supported by the JLab/CODA
setup? It would be really best to avoid splitters etc. on your analog
signals. Unless you've verified them by for instance a network analyzer
sweep up to at least 100 MHz... Don't trust a homebrew splitter without
such a verification, if the signal shape is important.
If the DAQ setup cannot be triggered internally from the ADC, you
should nevertheless at least be able to use the ADC's internal trigger
features, set for front panel LEMO trigger out, and connect that to the
DAQ system trigger interface as per usual (as you would with your cosmic
paddle trigger).
