60 MHZ 6 bit digital to analog converters for the super beam damper of the Fermilab main accelerator

Conference · · IEEE Trans. Nucl. Sci.; (United States)
OSTI ID:5141142
These high speed digital to analog converters were designed and built for use in the super beam damper of the Fermilab main accelerator. They are replacements for an earlier less stable version. With complementary digital inputs, the converters provide complementary outputs of a digitally delayed beam position analog signal. Both D/A's are capable of converting a six bit digital word to /plus or minus/2.5 volts into a 50 /OMEGA/ load with dc response, typical rise and fall times of 5 nanoseconds, and long term stability. Conversion speeds of 60 MHz are easily obtained. 4 refs.
