The 12 bit ADC conversion time is 5.7 [math]\mu[/math]s. A sliding scale technique is used to reduce differential nonlinearity by injecting an offset. This reduces the dynamic range to 0 [math]\Rightarrow[/math] 3840. ADC values between 3841 and 4095 indicate an error.

The TDC measures the time interval between the falling ECL inputs to the start/stop and the channel.

You can change the dynamic range of the TDC by setting bits using the library function c775setFSR.
