TokenDelay

The content of the TokenDelay register determines the duration in RClk cycles the leading Helix128-2 waits before it starts sending the next event's analog data after having received the return token from the previous readout. Thus, a regular delay in processing of the sent data can be accounted for (see fig. 14). The delay is achieved by holding back the SufixTokenOut token output of the leading Helix128-2. A value of 0 indicates immediate sending of the next event. In case of single chip operation the delay as specified in the TokenDelay register is added to the time which is needed to load the multiplexer.
