HV board / ASIC

[Yves Van Haarlem <yvhaarle@ernest.phys.cmu.edu>]

Dear Fernando,

We are slowly reaching towards finalizing the new CDC prototype. We will 
use the mapping you proposed for the leads on the EDAC connector. Is there 
any progress on the new HV-board? Another thing which is a little less 
important would be the availability of another ASIC board with two/three 
ASIC chips to plug into the HV board. I know, even with 24 armed straws we 
have not enough shaper and fADC channels to read them out --- at the 
moment.

Just double checking: Is it correct that channels 9-16 are not read out if 
we use the ASIC board with only two chips (so we have to connect channels 
9-16 of the EDAC connector to the least important straws).

Cheers and thanks,
 	Yves
