Before revision: Application TDCs are used in applications where measurement events happen infrequently, such as high energy physics experiments, where the sheer number of data channels in most detectors ensures that each channel will be excited only infrequently by particles such as
After revision: Application TDCs are used to timestamp events and measure time differences between events, especially where picosecond precision and high accuracy is required, such as the measurement of events in high energy physics experiments, where particles (e.g.
