Abstract
Describes a systematic study of the performance of commercially available FADCs (flash analog-to-digital converter) in the 100-megasample/s range, which might be suitable for use at the Superconducting Super Collider. Performance characteristics are measured using a CAMAC-based test bench. Among the FADC performance characteristics reported are linearity, differential linearity, and the effective number of bits
