hello i am an student and i want to do my final project with drs4 board and i really can´t find how to open waveform file and how can i save or
opened many of them quickly.
if you can tell me how i will be very grateful. |

|
Hi Stefan,
I read in the DRS datasheet that the bandwidth for the transparent mode OUT+ is only 200MHz which I think cannot be improved
by any active input buffer; so if you want to operate the chip for really high frequency input, would it be better to feed on-board discriminators not |

Dear Stefan,
I have emailed drs4@psi.ch a couple of times regarding the pricing of the evaluation kits for academic use in India and have not received any
reply and hence writing in this forum. Could you please help me in this? |

I am using the `drscl` app. My prior experience is practically zero, sorry if this is a very naive question. When I read using `read 0 1` (channel 0,
with calibration) I get this:

The 'drscl' tool is more for experts, normal users are advised to use the DRSOsc oscilloscope.
The board has to be calibrated for a given sampling speed before calibrated data can be read out. Do that with the "calib" command,
specifying 5 for the sampling rate, 0 for the range (which is the middle between -0.5 and +0.5) and 1 for 1024 mode. If you then do "start", |

I want to measure the signal from PMT . But it is a current signal, should i just put a series resistance, or use a amplifier to convert it to voltage
signal before drs4?
Can you give me some advice ? |

Hello, everyone.
I'm a student in Japan.
Please forgive me if this is a very rudimentary question. |

Hello,
I'm co-organizing the upcoming Real Time Conference, which covers also fields of waveform processing and sampling, so it might be interesting for
people working with the DRS4 chip. If you have recent results, you could also consider to send an abstract to this conference. It will be nicely |

Dear experts,
We are trying to increase the event rate of the DRS4. We looked into the ROI
but couldn’t figure out how to run in ROI mode. We are wondering if there is pre-existing firmware for this? We also tried to download and build |

The firmware from the website always reads 1024 bins. You have to modify it to stop before that, like reading only 128 samples or so. For compiling under
MacOSX, this should work, since I do it myself.

Hi Stefan,
I read in the datasheet that every time after power up the Domino wave in DRS4 needs to be started and stopped once to initialize
the Domino circuit. However in your firmware it seems the chip immediately goes into the idle state after reset. Is that Domino circuit initialization |

Hi Stefan,
I read in the DRS datasheet that the input bandwidth if 950MHz. However, it also says the output bandwidth in the transparent
mode is 50MHz. Since in the transparent mode the input is routed to the output, does it mean the input bandwidth also gets reduced in the transparent mode? |
