AND (2x) CAEN N405 3fold Logic Unit
Fan Out (1x) CAEN N105 Dual Fan-Out 1x16
Gate & Delay Generator (1x) EG&G GG8000 octal Gate Generator
VME Gate & Delay Generator (1x) CAEN V486 8ch Gate and Delay Generator
ECL <-> NIM (1x) Phillips 726 Level Translator
NIM -> ECL (1x) home made NIM to ECL Converter
CFD (2x) home made 5 fold Constant Fraction Trigger

Timing Scheme

The timing scheme was produced using a pulse generator (BNC BL-2, settings: rise time = 3 ns, fall time = 30 ns) simulating the detector signals from the two bases of one scintillator panel and one base of a BaF2 detector.
The start time is given relative to the output of the first CFD. Start and length are given in micro seconds.
