19 @brief Class to write raw data
20*/
e802be3e 21//____________________________________________________________________
22//
23// Class to write ADC values to a raw data file
24//
7684b53c 25// This class writes FMD Raw data to a file. The sample rate (number
26// of times the ALTRO ADC samples each pre-amp. channel - that is,
27// data from a single strip), can be set via SetSampleRate.
28//
29// Zero-suppression can be enabled by calling SetThreshold with a
30// non-zero argument. ADC values less than the value set will not be
31// written to output. Note, that if you use zero-suppression, you
32// need to explicitly set the sample rate when reading back the data
33// with AliFMDRawReader.
34//
35// This class uses the AliAltroBuffer class to write the data in the
36// ALTRO format. See the Exec member function for more information on
37// that format.
