Abstract

Drift chamber readout electronics for over 8000 channels with concurrent data recording and readout have been developed to update the NA48 experiment existing system. Drift times are measured in bins of 1.56 ns with respect to the continuously running 40 MHz experiment clock. The architecture is based on commercially available hardware for cost effectiveness and flexibility. The design of the electronics is described, and results from data-taking runs are presented.
