Novel DAQ and Trigger Methods for the KLOE experiment

preprint2000arXivOpen access

Abstract

KLOE, a new state of the art detector recently commissioned for physics operation at DAFNE, has many innovative interesting features, especially in the DAQ and Trigger areas. Custom electronics assert a trigger in a 2 microseconds decision time and distributes it to the FEE with a 50 ps time resolution. Data are read out using 10 front-end data acquisition chains and sent to a farm of online servers through a FDDI Gigaswitch. This design of the KLOE DAQ system allows us to manage an input data rate as high as 50 Mbyte/s, and is completely scalable by extending the number of computers connected to the switch.
