Requirement to Flash ADC link system

A FADC system has 24 ADC channels. Each channel has a VA chip and 128 strips. A data size of a strip is 10-bit. Thus, a strip needs a buffer of 2 bytes. Each channel generates data of 256 bytes and then a FADC system generates 6144 (24 x 256) bytes as an event.

There are 36 FADC systems for BELLE SVD2. A PC reads data from minimum three FADC systems as a source node of the event builder. Thus, 12 PCs are necessary for the link system. Figure gif shows the configuration of a PC and the Flash ADC systems.
