EcalRawConverterDriver should work with raw mode data. It was used with
raw mode data in the test run. By default, it will recognize when the
collection of ECal hits converted from EVIO consists of RawTrackerHits
(containing an array of ADC samples) as opposed to RawCalorimeterHits
(containing a single ADC integral), and use the sum-and-subtract code in
EcalRawConverter.sumADC().
There is alternatively an FADCConverterDriver that simulates the FADC
integration code, taking the raw mode hits as input and producing the
integral hits that the FADC would have produced in that mode.
I don't know what you mean by timing, unless you mean the timestamp code.
The code dealing with timestamps is for MC only, and is turned off by
default.
