Abstract :
In order to perform a spectroscopy system, typical digital systems consisted of several DSP and a flash ADC. Nowadays FPGAs are well suited for this, since it is possible to implement various tasks running in parallel in a single FPGA device. Here we describe the practical implementation of preprocessing algorithms on a digital electronic module featuring one only FPGA for event processing. The overall system and its functionalities are presented, and then we report some results and future developments
