16 Channel Multievent QDC
V792N
The Model V792N is a 1-unit wide VME 6U module housing 16 Charge-to-Digital Conversion channels with current integrating negative inputs (50 Ohm impedance). For each channel, the input charge is converted to a voltage level by a QAC (Charge to Amplitude Conversion) section. Input range is 0 ÷ 400 pC. The Model V792N features LEMO 00 connectors for both input and control signals. The outputs of the QAC sections are multiplexed and subsequently converted by two fast 12-bit ADCs.

Digitizer
743 Family
The 743 is the Switched Capacitor Digitizer family, based on the SAMLONG chip and developed in collaboration with CEA/IRFU, with a good compromise between high sampling frequency (3.2GS/s) and channel density. It can record very fast signals from scintillators coupled to PMTs, Silicon Photomultipliers, APD, Diamond detectors and others, and save them with high efficiency and precision for advanced timing analysis.

Digitizers
CAEN has developed a complete family of digitizers that consists of several models differing in sampling frequency, resolution, form factor (VME, NIM, Desktop, Rack) and other features.In recent years CAEN opened the doors of its R&D to the Open FPGA technology, which is becoming more and more widely used and required. In addition, we decided to invest many resources in order to make this technology accessible to everyone. These efforts result in innovative Programmable Digitizer families and the SCI-Compiler software for easy-programming of the Open FPGA simplifying firmware writing with a block-based visual programming language.

Digitizer
742 Family
The 742 is the Switched Capacitor Digitizer family, based on the DRS4 chip by PSI, with the highest sampling frequency (5GS/s) and channel density. It can record very fast signals from scintillators coupled to PMTs, Silicon Photomultipliers, APD, Diamond detectors and others, and save them with high efficiency and precision for advanced timing analysis. The 742 family has an additional channel (two channels in case of VME boards) which can be used as time reference for time of fight measurements. The resolution of this kind of measurements can reach up to 50 ps.

Intelligent Silicon Photomultiplier Tube
i-Spector family
i-Spector is a all-in-one detector and electronics instrument based on a SiPM area (18×18 mm2, 24×24 mm2 or 30×30 mm2), possibly coupled to a scintillation crystal suitable for the chosen application. The i-Spector integrates in a compact tube-like mechanics the detection stage, frontend electronics, an integrated power supply for SiPM biasing and, eventually, a digital chain to process onboard the incoming data. The i-Spector can be controlled via Ethernet and/or wireless communication based on LoRa standard.
