Implementation of Low-Cost Architecture for Control an Active Front End Rectifier

In AC-DC power conversion, active front end rectifiers offer several advantages over diode rectifiers such as bidirectional power flow capability, sinusoidal input currents and controllable power factor. A digital finite control set model predictive controller based on fixed-point computations of an active front end rectifier with unity displacement of input voltage and current to improve dynam...

Smart Analogue Sampler for the Optical Module of a Cherenkov Neutrino Detector

A transient waveform sampler/recorder IC has been developed and realized in AMS C35B4 technology. This chip has been designed to fit the needs of a proposal for a front-end architecture for the readout of the anode signal of the photomultipliers in an underwater neutrino telescope. The design is based around a 3 channels x 32 cells switched capacitor array unit sampling its voltage inputs at 20...

Time calibration system for the KM3NeT deep sea neutrino telescope

In this contribution we review the time calibration system proposed for the future underwater KM3NeT neutrino telescope. Building on the experience gained with the pilot projects, ANTARES, NEMO and NESTOR, and the results in-situ from the ANTARES Optical Beacons, we propose a decoupled optical system, based on LEDs and lasers, to perform an intra-line and inter-line relative time calibration. T...
