A Data Acquisition System （DAQ） for electron energy loss coincident spectrometers （EELCS） has been developed. The system is composed of a Multiplex Time-Digital Converter （TDC） that measures the flying time of positive and negative ions and a one-dimension positionsensitive detector that records the energy loss of scattering electrons. The experimental data are buffered in a first-in-first-out（FIFO） memory module, then transferred from the FIFO memory to PC by the USB interface. The DAQ system can record the flying time of several ions in one collision, and allows of different data collection modes. The system has been demonstrated at the Electron Energy Loss Coincident Spectrometers at the Laboratory of Atomic and Molecular Physics, USTC. A detail description of the whole system is given and experimental results shown.
Absolute optical oscillator strength density and double differential cross section spectra of CO below 120 eV are determined by fast electron impact. Some peaks above the first ionization threshold stand out as the momentum transfer square K2 increases. The doubly excited Rydberg states converging to C 2∑^＋, D ^2∏, and F ^2∏ states of CO^＋, respectively, are confirmed in our spectra. Another peak at around 32eV is assigned to the transition of （3σ）^-1（2π）^1^1∏←X^1∑^＋.
