The use of large size detectors and the search of a better topological and energy resolutions implies an increasing data rate. Consequently, information reduction strategies are a need that cannot be overlooked. However, it is important to avoid deadtime in the acquisition process. Most of the light sensors used in time projection chambers (TPC), such as NEXT experiment, are silicon...

The continuous increase in sampling rates of modern waveform digitizers, reaching and exceeding the multi-GSPS regime, poses significant challenges to real-time FPGA-based signal processing. New Platforms fast digitizers enable unprecedented bandwidth and timing resolution but require processing architectures capable of sustaining deterministic operation at effective data rates of several...

The improvement in sensibility and accuracy of event detection underwater is among the most notable changes projected for the next generation of Cherenkov light neutrino detector Hyper-Kamiokande. To achieve this goal, the front-end electronics have been renovated to perform the analog to digital conversion next to the PMTs, in a vessel underwater. This overhaul has produced the need to have a...

Luca Trevisan (Consorzio RFX)26/05/2026, 15:20Data Acquisition and Trigger ArchitecturesOral presentation
In large-scale fusion experiments, such as those addressing the major energy challenges of the current century, accurate control and data acquisition systems are crucial for facility operation and the validation of fundamental theories. Diagnostic systems require integration strategies to manage the high data volume, ensure high sampling rates and precisely synchronize control actions. Since...

A new CMOS integrated front-end has been developed to use in Time Projection Chamber (TPC) based experiments. The readout of large-scale detectors involves some intrinsic challenges. Nowadays, most of these experiments choose Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs) as sensors. However, there is a large variety of sizes and gains, which turns into different parasitic capacitance and dark count rates....

Time-to-Digital Converters (TDCs) are indispensable components in data acquisition systems for particle and nuclear physics experiments. While performance requirements vary by detector, applications such as Multi-Wire Drift Chambers (MWDCs) and Parallel Plate Avalanche Counters (PPACs) demand high channel density with moderate resolution, ranging from 100 ps to 1 ns.

Machine learning (ML) inference on FPGAs has been widely adopted in real-time triggering of collider experiments for detector signature identification. The ML application in Front-End Electronics (FEE) has not yet been fully explored, primarily due to constraints such as limited FPGA resources and localized detector coverage.
In this work, we develop an ML-based waveform discrimination...

The need for continuous measurement without triggering events, known as streaming data acquisition, is crucial for many experiments nuclear, particle, and cosmic ray physics. In Japan, the SPADI alliance provides complete streaming readout systems from front-end hardware to the data acquisition software, and is designed to be easily deployable and scalable. While several candidates for...
