Abstract: (IEEE)
The CDF calorimetry readout module, called the ADMEM, has been designed to contain both the analog circuitry which digitizes the phototube charge pulses, and the digital logic which supports the readout of the results through the CDF Run 2 DAQ system. The ADMEM module is a 9U×400 mm VMEbus module, which is housed in a CDF VMEbus VIPPA crate. The ADMEM must support near deadtimeless operation, with data being digitized and stored for possible readout every 132 ns or 7.6 MHz. This paper will discuss the implementation of the analog and digital portions of the ADMEM module, and how the board was laid out to avoid the coupling of digital noise into the analog circuitry
