Abstract :
A Drift Chamber Time Digitizer System has been designed which combines direct counting and time stretching techniques. By time stretching for only the low order bits, most logic can be low power Schottky TTL allowing 3 channels of 3 ns time resolution in a single width CAMAC module while holding conversion time to less than 1¿s.
