DAQ and Trigger Systems for CLAS12 |
TDR supporting slides | |
June 2007 |
CLAS DAQ Analysis |
CLAS DAQ performance (10kHz event rate, 35MB/s data rate, <15% dead time) is close to CLAS12 requirements (10kHz, 100MB/s, <15%) | |
FASTBUS ADCs will be replaced with Flash ADCs | |
Pipeline TDCs will be reused, new channels will be equipped with the same kind of modules | |
CAMAC discriminators will be replaced with JLAB-made modiles | |
FASTBUS 1877 TDCs will be reused for drift chambers, VME backup solution will be provided | |
ADB electronics will be partially reused, partially redesigned | |
Completely new trigger system will be built |
CLAS12 Data Acquisition System |
4108 channels of Flash ADCs and TDCs/discriminators collecting data from two calorimeters, two cerenkov counters and three time-of-flight detectors | |
12096 channels of TDCs collecting data from Drift Chambers | |
41 VME/VME64X/VXS/FASTBUS crates equipped with Readout Controllers and Trigger Interface Units | |
CODA DAQ software |

CLAS12 Trigger System |
Trigger system study is completed based on high energy CLAS data | |
CLAS12 trigger system conceptual design is completed; it includes fast detector-based Level1 trigger and Drift Chamber-based Level2 trigger subsystems (see following slides) | |
Future development includes CLAS12 simulation-based trigger study and electronics design | |

CLAS12 computing and network |
CLAS online cluster is fast enough already to satisfy CLAS12 requirements, except data storage and data link to the JLAB computer center | |
Most of computing and network equipment will be upgraded in following years because of aging and maintenance reasons |
Slide 16 |
CLAS12 Experiment Control System |
New Experiment Control System (ECS) will be adopted for CLAS12 | |
ECS will include monitoring, control and calibration subsystems | |
CLAS12 DAQ and Trigger systems will be incorporated into ECS |
