V. and Gadea, A.", title="AGATA phase 2 advancements in front-end electronics", journal="European Physical Journal A", year="2023", publisher="Springer", volume="59", number="6", pages="133--20pp", abstract="The AGATA collaboration has a long-standing leadership in the development of front-end electronics for high resolution ?-ray spectroscopy using large volume high purity germanium detectors. For two decades, the AGATA collaboration has been developing state-of-the-art digital electronics processing with high resolution sampling ADC, high-speed signal transfer and fast readout to a high throughput computing (HTC) farm for on-line pulse shape analysis. The collaboration is presently addressing the next challenge of equipping a 4p array with more than 6000 channels in high resolution mode, generating approximately 10 MHz of total trigger requests, coupled to a large variety of complementary instruments. A next generation of front-end electronics, presently under design, is based on industrial products (System on Module FPGA{\textquoteright}s), has higher integration and lower power consumption. In this contribution, the conceptual design of the new electronics is presented. The results of the very first tests of the pre-production electronics are presented as well as future perspectives.", optnote="WOS:001015065300001", optnote="exported from refbase (https://references.ific.uv.es/refbase/show.php?record=5567), last updated on Sat, 08 Jul 2023 15:18:56 +0000", issn="1434-6001", doi="10.1140/epja/s10050-023-01045-0", opturl="https://doi.org/10.1140/epja/s10050-023-01045-0", language="English" }
