Abstract :
The first prototype for the CUORE digitizing board (CDB) has been realized and characterized by the INFN Genova group. The board has a 6U VME format ( 233 × 280 mm ) , 12 independent inputs, buffering capabilities and is fully programmable via VME interface. Each channel has auto-triggering capabilities, is completely independent and the sampling circuit has zero dead time. Each input is equipped with an 18 bit ADC whose sampling speed is programmable up to a maximum of 5 kHz. The measured resolution is 1 LSB r.m.s. A description of the board is provided and its measured performances are shown.
