Abstract
The design and performance of a single-width multilayer FASTBUS board for digitization of electromagnetic calorimeter data at LEP are described. The board consists of 32 channels of flash analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) clocked at 15 MHz. The digitized data are filtered through a zero-suppression circuit, stored in a buffer memory, and then reformatted using an onboard microprocessor. The microprocessor allows calibration tasks such as pedestal monitoring and linearity/relative gain measurements to be performed efficiently.Keywords
