Ramp range setting<br />
Figure 19 Graphical representation of the pedestals that were obtained by downloading all values for<br />
the Ramp Range. A Ramp Pedestal setting of 7 was used and a digitization frequency of 50 MHz.<br />
We also observed and measured the ramp directly by placing a Picoprobe on test pads<br />
located on the top of the chip. The ramp output is shown in Figure 20. The first dip in<br />
Figure 20 is the ramp obtaining the ramp pedestal setting. The ramp is not released until<br />
the digitize cycle occurs. When digitization is about to begin, the ramp is released. This<br />
is clearly seen in the figure. Using the oscilloscope, we measured the values of the ramp<br />
directly. We give the data in Table 8.<br />
