JLab has built their own Flash ADC (called the F250)

It has a mini trigger connector which requires another VME board to convert from the standard lemo input to this mini input.

Addressing

JLab's F250 flash ADC will be used to measure the NaI output

ADdress is

Address
Pin	Switch	bit
A12	on/closed	0
A13	on	0
A14	on	0
A15	on	0
A16	on	0
A17	off/open	1
A18	off	1
A19	off	1
A20	on	0
A21	off	1
A22	off	1
A23	off	1

Module address = 0xee0000 = 111011100000000000000000 d

If I want 0xaa0000 = 101010100000000000000000 d

If I want 0xbb = 10111011

Address
Pin	Switch	bit
A12	on/closed	0
A13	on	0
A14	on	0
A15	on	0
A16	off	1
A17	off/open	1
A18	on	0
A19	off	1
A20	off	1
A21	off	1
A22	on	0
A23	off	1
