411. A 3.8ps RMS time synchronization implemented in a 20 nm FPGA

Mr HongBo Xie (Department of Modern Physics, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei 230026, China)

15/06/2018, 11:10

Oral presentation

A 3.8ps RMS time synchronization implemented in a 20nm fabrication process ultrascale kintex Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) is presented. The multi-channel high-speed serial transceivers (e.g., GTH) play a key role in a wide range of applications, such as the quantum key distribution systems. However, owing to the independent clock divider between the serial data clock and the parallel...

439. FPGA Based Pico-second Time Measurement System for a DIRC-like TOF Detector

Mr Qiang Cao (Department of Modern Physics,University of Science and Technology of China)

15/06/2018, 11:30

Oral presentation

A prototype of DIRC-like Time-of-Flight detector (DTOF), including a pico-second time measurement electronics, is developed and tested preliminarily. The basic structure of DTOF is composed of a fused silica radiator connected to fast micro-channel plate PMTs (MCP-PMT), and readout by a dedicated FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) based front-end electronics. The full electronics chain...

444. Preliminary Design of Integrated Digitizer Base for Photomultiplier Tube

Mr Jinfu Zhu (Tsinghua University)

15/06/2018, 11:50

Oral presentation

The photomultiplier tubes (PMT) are popularly used in high energy physics experiments, nuclear related experiments, medical equipment and other fields. The conventional readout system with PMTs use the discrete or integrated pulse shaping circuits and FADC boards which are based on NIM or VME system to implement the data acquisition function. In many applications, there are only several PMTs...

582. Development of a multichannel FPGA based high resolution Time-to-Digital Converter

Tomonori Takahashi (RIKEN)

Oral presentation

Time-of-Flight measurement is a powerful tool to distinguish particles in nuclear and hadron physics experiments. For such purpose, a low cost, multichannel and high resolution of better than 30 ps time to digital converter (TDC) is needed. In this work, a multichannel TDC is implemented in Xilinx Kintex-7 (XC7K160T-1).
The TDC employs tapped delay line (TDL) for fine time measurement. Each...

437. A 5.5 ps Time-interval RMS Precision Time-to-Digital Convertor Implemented in Intel Arria 10 FPGA

Mr Jie Kuang (the Department of Modern Physics, University of Science and Technology of China), Prof. Yonggang Wang (the Department of Modern Physics, University of Science and Technology of China)

15/06/2018, 12:30

Oral presentation

As an important part of the field programmable gate array (FPGA) market, Intel FPGA has also great potential for implementation of time-to-digital convertor (TDC). In this paper, the basic tapped delay line (TDL) TDC structure is adapted in Intel Arria 10 FPGA, which is manufactured with 20 nm process technology. Because of the serious bubble problem for FPGA made by state-of-art process, the...
