“…The new DAQ system uses SiTCP [5] (a hardware network processor implemented on FPGA) based BEBs to read information from 4 FEBs to one DAQ server using TCP/IP protocol. A full description of the system and its basic performance is found elsewhere [4]. After testing the operation of the new BEB on the SciCRT we conclude that this new system has the capability to obtain neutron ADC data about 10 times faster than the old…”

“…In this module, the analog signals from the FEBs are digitized (ADC data) and send to a DAQ server by a VME bus interface. With this system, a maximum transfer rate of 1 kHz is achievable when reading only one BEB [4]. The trigger board (TRGB) collects the hit signals from FEBs and triggers other modules to capture cosmic rays events.…”

“…The sensitivity of the SciCRT to solar neutrons was significantly limited by the dead time of the DAQ system originally developed for the accelerator experiments, because background neutrons are dominant for our observational environment at 4,600 m. Therefore, we developed a fast readout DAQ system for the SciCRT which was installed into muon layers and one SB in July 2016 [16]. We have analyzed data obtained by the SciCRT, but no candidates have been found for any solar neutron events yet.…”

“…Because the electronic system was originally designed for an accelerator experiment, the specific requirements depart from our goals as a Solar neutron/cosmic ray experiment. In summary the requirements of the electronic DAQ system for SciCRT to achieve its full performance are [1]:…”

“…The next step in the upgrading process is the development of new front end electronics. Even though the performance of our front end electronics in solar neutrons events has been evaluated throughout Monte Carlo simulation as satisfactory [1,4], current design of the front end boards is based on ASIC, enabling excellent energy resolution and very small board size at the expense of high production costs per board. This fact is aggravated by the large number of boards need in the installation of the full SciCRT.…”
