The 32-channel Readout Front end Card FEC32S based on SAMPA ASIC for the Dubna NICA TPC

Abstract

The readout front end electronics is one of the main parts of the NICA TPC. The whole system contains 95232 channels. It is necessary to use the high density Front End Cards (FEC). The optimal way is to design FEC on the basis on SAMPA ASICs with high speed serial links.
