摘要

A new FPGA based data acquisition (DAQ) and trigger combined system is developed for the MTV experiment (Mott Polarimetry for T-Violation Experiment). The MTV experiment measures backward Mott scattering events by detecting the incident and scattered tracks using a drift chamber. For the backward scattering probability is as small as less than 0.1%, efficient triggering system is required to select the desired events. An intelligent Level-2 trigger system reading hitting pattern together with its digital readout system are built in a custom FPGA system. In this paper, design overview and results from performance tests are described.
