FMC Time to Digital Converter PTS
This is the Production Test Suite, PTS, of the FMC-TDC that aims at testing the different components of the board upon its production.
Please note:
- The Calibration is part of the PTS that aims at defining offset parameters, before the installation of a board, and was based on a dedicated Study on Calibration
- Performance Tests that determine the precision and general performance of the design, hardware, gateware and software, over time are available in here.
