CAENDigitizer Library

Overview

CAENDigitizer contains the functions to program CAEN boards like Digitizers, Digital MCAs and Digital Pulse Analyzers, to manage the acquisition, execute the readout, unpack the data, send triggers, etc. This library is designed specifically to support both Standard and DPP firmware.

CAENDigitizer library relies on the CAENComm and CAEVMELib libraries, allowing to implement a common interface to the higher software layers, masking the details of the physical channel and its protocol. Libraries and applications that rely on the CAENDigitizer become this way independent from the physical layer.

Supported Operating Systems:	Windows (32-64 bit), Linux (32-64 bit)
Language:	C, LabVIEW (Windows only)
Supported Products:	VME, NIM and Desktop digitizers(a), Digital MCAs and Digital Pulse Analyzer DT5790
Supported Comm. Interface:	USB, Optical Link, VME
Additional Software Required:	CAENComm, CAENVMELib, NI LabVIEW Development System

(a) The LabVIEW library doesn’t support 743 digitizer family and DPP-ZLEplus firmware.
