Time-to-digital converter

The Acquiris TC840 CompactPCI module from Acquiris is a single- and multi-start time-to-digital converter module with 50-ps timing resolution. The device is suited for large-scale experiments including hydrodynamics, time-of-flight measurement in mass spectrometry, and 3-D mapping. It features inputs with programmable thresholds, which help when measuring the time of the rising or falling edge of fast trigger events. Twelve channels are independent stop inputs; the thirteenth is the common start. Start/stop events separated by as much as 20 s can be recorded. A large internal buffer allows the recording of up to 512 stops per channel.
