Digital Electronic Tests at JYFL • Introduction • Synchronisation Tests / TDR Integration • Phase I Detector Tests • Clover Tests Pete Jones, University of JyväskyläSAGE / LISA Kick-Off MeetingDaresbury Laboratory, 2nd September 2005
Synchronisation • TNT uses 100MHz clock, but currently cannot be used as a ”slave” • Use sync pulses from TDR metronome • Use pseudo-random pulse generator into both TDR and TNT • Merge / Time differences offline
Syncronisation Results • Pseudo-random generator shows 0.6x10-6 cannot be corellated • TNT ”dead-time” ~1.8% (10kHz input) : < 4us pulses • Dead time possible in both systems
In Beam Tests • Idea : Test both analogue and digital electronics in real situation • Test effects of counting rates • Performance more realistic than with sources (multiplicity) • Idea of what kind of gamma-ray array need would be for the future
Test Reaction • 107,109Ag(36Ar,2p2n)139Eu • 160MeV β~2.5% • Ib=5 – 50 pnA • Ge count rate 10-100kHz • RITU Gas counter 1-10kHz

Threshold of Digital vs Analogue ..but... Higher Background (veto) Lower threshold
Analogue : Effect of Rate(pileup) 100kHz 50kHz 10kHz
Phase 1 Tests : Summary • Analogue limited by pileup & resolution • Digital offers lower energy thresholds • Veto handling in digital needs some work, as does marking of data • Digital solution improves counting rate up to 40-50kHz
Clover Tests Angle 1 : 69.2o EUROGAM II = 75.5o Angle 2 : 117.5o EUROGAM II = 104.5o Target – detector distance same as in EUROGAM II Detector Resolution ~2.5 keV

Summary • Instrument Digital Electonics into TDR : Need some ”TDR” compatability • Digital electronics : • seems work well with phase 1, and improves counting capability • Offer lower thresholds • Need some work on veto / data • Clover detector gives as good performance as phase 1 • More efficient • Digital problems need to be solved
