Figure 5.12.: The photo shows the TacQuila-based read-out of the LAND detector, comprising<br />

480 channels in 3 crates. In the lower part of the rack, the lowvoltage<br />

supplies for TacQuila are hosted.<br />

supply, which will be integrated into the socket of each photomultiplier voltage divider.<br />

A similar supply has been realized earlier for the photomultipliers of the Crystal Ball<br />

detector, which is part of the LAND setup 2 . An integrated solution is favoured for two<br />

reasons, namely space and power consumption. First, compared to cables and connectors<br />

required for the supply of high voltages, typical cables and connectors for the control of<br />

the integrated HV supply inside the photomultiplier socket, are much smaller and more<br />

flexible. Second, the power consumption and thus heat dissipation, are typically reduced<br />

by one order of magnitude for integrated solutions.<br />
