A data acquisition module based on monolithic high speed Flash-ADC chips (8 bit resolution) is described in this paper. Four fully independent channels, with 250 MHz sampling rate and a 2 KByte buffer memory each, can be combined (interleaved) in one channel to achieve an effective 1 GHz sampling rate with a total of 8 KByte memory depth. The double Eurocard board supports standard 16 bit or 32 bit VMEbus protocol for high speed readout. The board is essentially self contained and can be used cost effectively in small applications as in large experimental setups.
