The ANKA synchrotron radiation source located at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology in Germany operates in the energy range between 0.5-2.5GeV and provides coherent synchrotron radiation. To resolve the ultra-short terahertz pulses emitted by a single bunch, thin YBCO superconducting film detectors have been developed. A response time of 45ps was determined as the FWHM at the output of the analog amplifier. A novel and high accuracy data acquisition architecture for sampling of the individual ultra-short terahertz pulses combined with real-time data processing based on GPUs for coherent synchrotron radiation is presented. The digitizer board is a made-in-house board designed for sampling of the fast pulse signals with pulse width between few tens of picosecond until 100ps. For each terahertz pulse five samples are acquired with a minimum sampling time of 3ps. A prototype setup with terahertz YBCO detectors, digitizer boards and the high-throughput FPGA framework has been successfully developed and tested at ANKA. The overview of the experimental setup including the YBCO detector technology and the preliminary results with single and multi-bunch filling pattern will be discussed.
