Description
The main tasks of the read-out electronics for the new NUMEN FPD is the real-time data collection
from the front-end boards and the high bandwidth transmission to data acquisition, the remote
configuration and the slow control of the front-end electronics and the synchronization of the
whole detector. The read-out electronics architecture, thought as modular and expandable to the
final size of the detectors, is based on System On Module (SOM). These very versatile devices
couple high performance FPGA to powerful processor architecture and allow a graphical approach
to the programming and interfacing. The results on the test of the prototypes is presented.
