Abstract The trigger used for the collection of the samples of $K^{0}$ yields $\pi^{0}\pi^{0}$ decays in the NA48 experiment at CERN uses a novel pipeline design in order to satisfy the demanding specifications of a high rate kaon beam. The trigger algorithms, architecture and performance are described.
