1.2.5. COMMON STOP EMULATION<br />
The COMMON STOP operation is not foreseen by the <strong>TDC</strong> chips. However it can be<br />
easily implemented with the following scheme:<br />

COMMON STOP<br />
TRIGGER<br />

by programming the board in STOP TRIGGER MATCHING mode, with the TRIGGER<br />
WINDOW ending with the occurrence of the TRIGGER/STOP signal (see Fig. 1.7).<br />

The stored data consist in an absolute time measurement (the zero time reference is<br />
represented by the RESET) ; the timing information of the STOP (T_stop - T_hit) can be<br />
easily obtained by the software. The event is stored in the local buffer of the board with<br />
the following structure:<br />
HEADER event n. 1<br />
DATUM n.1 HIT time(4)<br />
DATUM n.2 HIT time(5)<br />
DATUM n.3 HIT time(6)<br />
DATUM n.4 HIT time(7)<br />
DATUM n.5 HIT time(8)<br />
DATUM n.6 STOP time<br />
EOB num. of data read = 6<br />
