Data acquisition system for the readout of SiPM arrays

Silicon photomultipliers (SiPM) are becoming more and more popular in different fields of physics. The use of SiPM arrays requires a data acquisition (DAQ) system capable of reading multiple channels for each event. A DAQ system for the control and the readout of 64-channel detectors was designed and fabricated. Significant improvements in performance and new functionalities have been done. The performance of our DAQ system has been tested in a real application: a Compton telescope prototype. Tests, experimental results and future work are described.
