Description

We are developing the data-acquisition system of a silicon micro-vertex detector (SMVD) for the KEK B-factory. This data-acquisition system for the SMVD comprises detector modules, data scanners, and an event builder. We have developed several specially designed analog and digital VLSIs for the SMVD data-acquisition system. In this paper, we describe the system configuration together with the functions of the VLSIs. (orig.)
