abstract = {The Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA) will be the leading
ground-base observatory for Very High Energy (VHE)
${\gamma}-ray$ astronomy for the next decades. Its southern
site will host about 70 Small Sized Telescopes (SSTs) which
will determine the CTA sensitivity at ${\gamma}-ray$
energies between 1 and 300 TeV. One of the design options
for the SST cameras is the silicon photomultiplier-based
Compact High-Energy Camera (CHEC-S). The back-end
electronics (BEE) of CHEC-S interconnects the camera
front-end modules, provides power and clock distribution,
aggregation, routing and time stamping of data and most
importantly it implements the camera trigger system. A novel
technique to tag muons using the capabilities of this system
has been developed, studying and comparing different
algorithms such as circle fitting, machine learning and
simple pixel counting. This contribution describes the
design of the CHEC-S BEE, and presents the results of the
performance of this muon tagger and the prospects of using
it for other Cherenkov Telescopes types of CTA.},
