Atlas electronics index page

Here you find links to documentation of electronics in development at NIKHEF for Atlas:

• The CANspy module is used to monitor and/ or control multiple CAN-buses in the detector control system (DCS)
• Rasnik is a wide range, high precision alignment monitoring system.
• A system for phase calibration of the monitored drift tube electronics is proposed here.
• The NIMROD is the prototype interface between the MDT front end electronics and the data aquisition system and second level trigger. The ideas we had in 1997 about the NIMROD and related stuff are described here.
• In a later stage the NIMROD was split in the CSM, mounted on the chamber and the MROD (Muon Read Out Driver), sitting in USA15. The MROD sends the data of a tower of chambers (region of interest) to the ROB (Read Out Buffer).
• Many 3D B-field sensors are installed in Atlas and some other places.
  
• Hans' homepage containing information about CAN nodes and B-field and T sensors.
• Sander's page about the delay line, connecting two MDT tubes.
• More about slow controls from Jaap's pages.
• JanDavid's pages about the datimizer for DATCHA.
• The L3Cosmics project is also used as a pilot project for ATLAS, to test ideas about the NIMROD.
• If you are looking for other Nikhef electronics inluding Atlas.
