A new generation of integrated trigger and read out system for the MEG II experiment

Abstract

We present the new TDAQ system designed for the upgraded MEG experiment. It is an assembly of three new boards in a dedicated crate. The system foundation is on the so called WaveDREAM board with DAQ and trigger capabilities accompanied by trigger concentrator boards, to collect information from the detectors and perform real time event reconstruction, and data concentrator boards for DAQ purposes. The designed system, despite having been conceived for the MEG II experiment, is particularly flexible and can be utilised in many small and medium size applications, from 16 up to 10000 channels.
