 As mentioned in Section~\ref{sec:voltage}, the choice of filter affects the trade-off between noise levels and time resolution. The filters themselves are
 designed using helper scripts (Section~\ref{sec:lpfdesign}). Those scripts take the value of this knob to design a filter with a given bandwidth. The
