DAQ system

DAQ System circled in red; one rack for each of the four "hemispheres" of Gammasphere

Gammasphere's DAQ system (data acquisition system) is now placed on relay racks by each of its "hemispheres". It consists of a power supply, a collector box, and a VME crate. The data acquisition system observes, interprets, and modifies data taken from Gammasphere and appropriately presents it to the user.

DAQ System Function

The DAQ system consists of VME crates, IOC Modules, Digitizers and Trigger Modules. There are two types of Digitizers (Master and Slave) and well as Trigger (Master and Router).
