  • Abstract
    This paper presents the design of the NEDA front-end electronics, a first attempt to involve the use of digital electronics in large neutron detector arrays. Among the electronic modules taking part, we emphasize on the front-end analog processing, the digitalization, digital pre-processing, communications firmware, as well as the integration of the Global Trigger and Synchronization system. The NEDA array will be available for measurements in 2015.
