The complete MEG II Trigger and Data Acquisition System, named WaveDAQ, was installed and commissioned in Spring 2021 and successfully carried out the data taking campaign planned for the same year (Chiappini et al., 2021 [1]). It consists of 544 custom made 16-channel acquisition boards which contain the Domino Ring Sampler 4 chips for the analog sampling of the detector signals at > 1GHz frequency. This paper presents how the MEG II physics objectives shaped the design and operation of the WaveDAQ, the result is a flexible and scalable trigger and data acquisition system.
