Mon Feb 16 12:17:21 2015, Patrick Coleman-Smith, MACB update for 50Mhz external clock
|
This version of the MACB has an additional selection at 5 for a ROOT module.
This will operate the Correlation Scalar signals used for RIBF and use the External Clock signal directly for the FEE64 50MHz distribution.
This has been tested at Daresbury with and external clock source and operates successfully with the merger. |
