We describe the design and implementation of a fast data acquisition (DAQ) system for GEM trackers applied to imaging and dosimetry in hadrontherapy. Within the AQUA project of TERA foundation a prototype of Proton Range Radiography of 30x30 cm$^2$ active area has been designed and built to provide in-beam integrated density images of the patient before treatment. It makes use of a pair of GEM...

The NA62 trigger system works with 3 trigger levels. The first trigger level is based on hardware, central trigger unit, so called L0 Trigger Processor (L0TP) and Local Trigger Units (LTU), which are located in the experimental cavern. Other two trigger levels are based on a software, computer farm, located on a surface. The L0TP receives information from 12 triggering sub-detectors...

The Belle-II pixel detector (PXD) is the inner-most detector currently under development for the upgraded KEK-B factory in Japan. The PXD consists of two layers of DEPFET sensor modules located at radius 1.8 and 2.2~cm. Each module is equipped with three different ASIC types mounted on the detector substrate with flip-chip technique: (a) SWITCHER for generating steering signals for the DEPFET...

The OMEGA microelectronics group has designed a new generation of multichannel integrated circuits, the “ROC” family, in AMS (AustrianMicroSystem) SiGe 0.35 µm technology to read out signals from various families of photodetectors. The chip named MAROC (standing for Multi Anode ReadOut Chip) has been designed to read out Multi Anode Photomultipliers (MAPMT), PARISROC (standing for...

The asymmetric e+e- collider SuperB is designed to deliver a high luminosity with moderate beam currents and a reduced center of mass boost with respect to earlier B-Factories. The innermost detector is the Silicon Vertex Tracker which is made of 5 layers of double sided silicon strip sensors plus a Layer0 that can be equipped with short striplets detectors in a first phase of the experiment....

Switched Capacitor Arrays (SCA) for fast waveform sampling are on the market since many years, but only recently they got an enormous boost due to fast and cheap CMOS chip technology. Many groups worldwide developed or are developing SCAs reaching up to 20 Giga-Samples per second and 12 bits with a power consumption orders of magnitude lower than traditional Flash ADCs. Several experiment...
