 The S800 trigger from the [[Detectors#Plastic scintillators|E1 scintillator]] provides also the reference time for the [[Detectors#Cathode Readout Drift Chambers (CRDC)|CRDCs]] as well as time-of-flight measurements. Note that because the FPGA uses a 40 MHz internal clock, the time reference of the signals in the trigger circuit set the phase of that clock, and therefore jitter by 25 ns with respect to the source signals. This jitter is measured with a TDC and can be subtracted to the time measurements to recover the timing relative to the source signals.  The S800 trigger from the [[Detectors#Plastic scintillators|E1 scintillator]] provides also the reference time for the [[Detectors#Cathode Readout Drift Chambers (CRDC)|CRDCs]] as well as time-of-flight measurements.
