Data Management

The Saturn Data Management carrier boards are designed in 6U cPCI format, equipped with reconfigurable logic and a large data memory. Each board can carry two different modules, either Basic 120, Fast 150, Event Marker or Analog Output. All the functions can be realised also in a galvanic isolation version via a digital fiber transmission module and battery powered satellite housings for the modules.

Basic 120 Series

The Basic 120 series offers of 8 channels per module at a maximum of 3MS/s single ended 16 bit or 2MS/s 18 bit. With two modules 16 channels per slot can be realised in a very space saving way. 

Fast 150 Series

The Fast 150 series are the high data acquisition modules. They offer real differential 100MS/s at 14 bit definition in one channel model. They can be configured to 50MS/s in two and 25MS/s in 4 channel operation. The bandwidth is adapted automatically. The frontend amplifiers are always differential and are available with 6 input ranges, switchable input impedance (50 Ohm / 1 MOhm like AC/DC).

Furthermore the frontend amplifiers are available with a enhanced signal to noise ratio and a bit enhancement through intelligent over sampling. The data trigger and TTL trigger input is possible for each module separately.
