> Checked the noise of HV and LV on battery DSO
> - LV - no noticeable noise on any channel (< 5 mV rms)
> - HV - noticable periodic signal (~100 kHz, 100 mV Vpp) on both core and braid channels, common to both

> Filtering on AIDA front end ~ 10 nF (gnd), 3 kOhm  (series) - low pass ~ 33kHz rolloff
> 100 kHz would be attenuated factor of 5 maybe - 20 mV signal - still quite high for ASICs
> Try introducing additional inline filtering of maybe 3 kHz (1 nF gnd, 3 kOhm series) 

1nF/3k => 333kHz low pass rolloff

10nF/1M => 100Hz low pass rolloff

>  Check on one DSSSD, if see improvement can migrate to adapter boards in new revision
