ABSTRACT: This paper presents a design of a data
processing circuit for receiving digital signals from front end-electronic
board chips of a specific nuclear detector, encoding and triggering them via
specific optical links operating at a specific frequency. Such processed
signals are then fed to a data acquisition system (DAQ) for analysis. Very
high-speed integrated circuit hardware description language (VHDL) algorithms
and codes were created to implement this design using field programmable gate
array (FPGA) devices. The obtained data were simulated using international
standard simulators.
