description

TileCal is the hadronic calorimeter of the ATLAS experiment in the LHC (CERN). Its Read-Out Drivers (RODs) process, in real time, the digitized information coming from the front-end electronics and send it to the Read-Out System. Data processing in the ROD boards is performed in Processing Unit Mezzanine Cards that use commercial DSPs to run the Optimal Filtering (OF) algorithms.
