Electronics for the RICH detectors of the HADES and CBM experiments

The RICH detectors of the existing HADES spectrometer and CBM experiment (to be built at FAIR) will use 64 channel Multi-Anode PMTs. We designed a complete set of digitizing electronics, consisting of analog and digital front-end modules, power supply and data concentrator cards plugged into a backplane carrying 3 x 2 MAPMTs on the front side, and all readout modules on the backside. These contain all necessary supply electronics, preamplifiers and FPGA-based TDC as well as the digital data and trigger handling logic and an optical transceiver. We present the electronics along with first performance test results.
