WEEROC TESTBOARD

Weeroc Testboards are compact platforms designed to test and characterize Weeroc ASICs. This tool is suited to easily evaluate the performances of the ASIC and, thanks to its features, allows a versatile use with real detectors. The testboard provides easy access to all ASIC’s digital and analog I/Os and implements a DAQ system consisting of an Altera Cyclone III FPGA and 12-bit ADCs. The board hosts connections for detectors and the relative High Voltage distribution lines. Moreover, it provides the possibility to inject signals in the ASIC analog inputs using a generator. A dedicated software for each different ASIC is available. It provides a simple GUI to set all the programmable parameters of the ASIC and allows the user to perform calibration and DAQ in an intuitive way. Some firmware options can also be set in order to manage DAQ within an experiment.
