Title: Digitization of Analog Signals using a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)

Conference ·
OSTI ID:1433198

The idea of this research is consolidating the electrical components used for capturing data in the Mu2e Tracker. Ideally, an FPGA will serve as the Time-Division Converters (TDC) and Analog-to-Digital Converters (ADC). The TDC is already being carried out by the FPGA, but we are still using off the shelf ADCs. This poster proposes using Low Voltage Differential Signaling as the basis for analog-to-digital conversion using and FPGA.
