Figure 3
Timing diagrams of the two acquisition frame configurations used in our experiments. An external pulse generator provided the trigger signal to the FPGA board, which generated ten acquisition frames for the 10 Hz trigger, configuration (a), and six acquisition frames for a 100 Hz trigger, configuration (b). The detector dead-time (frame readout) of 320 µs was fixed for both configurations, while the length of the acquisition shutter was 9.68 ms for configuration (a) and 1.1 ms for configuration (b). A larger dead-time gap occured between the last shutter and next trigger (2 ms and 1.8 ms for 10 Hz and 100 Hz, respectively). Time of photon arrivals was registered with 1.28 µs accuracy for configuration (a) and 160 ns for configuration (b).
