Abstract:To reach the synchronization in multi-channels, a hardware scheme, which exploits a self-defined synchronized interface for routing the reference clock and control signals combined with external, is presented. Also, the method of clock phase alignment is described. The experiments show that synchronized precision of 100 ps can be obtained, that is top level of current multi-channels data acquisition system.
