  • Abstract
    The paper presents a configurable analog-digital processor handling scintillator BaF2 signals. It is composed of a VME mother-board housing two analog sections that accomplish analog conditioning of the detector signals. The processing core is split between two digital configurable devices, i.e. a FPGA XC4VSX35 and a DSP TMS C6203.
