Strip Module Internal Components: Status • Transition Cards: • PCBs Ordered - 820 US+EU (144 for 2 SM) • Quoted Delivery July 4 • Components ordered, most received • Molex cables • Ordered 7000 (2304 for 2 SM) • Expected delivery late September- Long story • Initially given 2 week delivery • Delay to receive quote due to PHOS non-payment • Delay due to non-compliance with CERN standards (Halogen) waiting for quote with compliant halogen-free cables • Quoted delivery now 12 weeks - due to materials?
Electronics: Testing/Calibration • Test APD+preamplifier (Houston, Catania) • Initial APD gain vs Voltage measurements, QA • Test FEE cards after production (CERN) • Confirm all channels have proper FADC outputs • Confirm APD bias control works properly • Measure Hi/Low amplifier channel gains • Calibrate Super Modules (Yale, Grenoble) • Measure APD voltage-gains for each channel • Obtain pre-calibration with cosmics • Determine APD operating voltage for each channel No special test fixtures will be built. Instead we will use EMCal FEE setups as test station(s).

EMCal FEE Crate From Didier Gabrielle
EMCal FEE Installation in ALICE Readout electronics/LED system • Readout electronics of a SuperModule of 24x48 towers sits in a water-cooled enclosure attached to the SM. Attached during SM assembly and used for calibration. • Two FEE crates (2 RCU) each with 2 GTL branches with 9 FEE cards. • A group of 12 FEE cards will be connected to a TRU to form a Trigger Region.
EMCal FEE Crate Status • Design complete • All commercial card guides and supports delivered • Prototype crate built at CERN including cooling manifold • Cooling manifold tested with PHOS negative pressure cooling water system • No leaks! • All copper panels uniformly at 18oC (temperature of cooling water) with ambient T=27oC • After heating copper panel locally to 60oC it returned to T=18oC in 90 seconds. • Plan • Build cooling manifolds for all 22 FEE crates at CERN • Make parts for 4 FEE crates (2 SMs) at CERN • Make parts for other SMs at ?
EMCal FEE Crate Status • Intermediate PCB - backplane of FEE crate with connectors to ribbon cables from SM; ordered for all SM • 4 versions: upper & lower, 9 and 10 FEE connections • PCBs ordered, delivery any day now • Connectors ordered, partially delivered • GTL bus - (delay due to check & modification of Serial I/O lines) • PCBs quotes being received - order in next days • Components ordered, partially delivered • RCU boards - Need 4 for 2 SMs • Not clear if will be available • order for 80 new RCUs has not yet gone out • DCS boards - No problem to get 4 for 2 SMs, • May be a problem to get 22 for EMCal • SIU boards - No problem • FEE LV bus in crate: cable+connectors purchased (all SM) and made for 2 SM (Cal Poly, San Luis Obispo)
FEE Card Status • FEE Cards - for all SMs (396 needed) • PCBs quotes from HUST and ELTOS (lowest) waiting for third quote, then place order • “Reject” cheap ALTRO chips tested at LUND, 599 ALTROs for EMCal (150 FEE boards) • GTL chips already purchased • FEE component price search underway by CERN • Maybe a mistake?! • Plan to have FEE cards complete by late September • Would like them sooner of course…
LED Monitoring System Status • LED system criteria: • Prototype system performed well but too bulky. • Need 24 LEDs per SM • issues: double-pulses, reproducibility • Ideally, should vary LED delays to match LED pulse timing to physics signals • Amplitude variability would be a plus, but not at the price of stability
LED Monitoring System Status • Catania solution: Use essentially the same prototypes packed into a high density copper box with one fan-out and 8 LED drivers per box. • Prototype built and tested • Meets space restrictions to fit 3 boards into gap between 2 FEE crates • Good performance, as expected, (no double pulsing…) • Good electrical isolation - probably cannot do better • Possibility to add additional cable delay of (n-1) ns * 20cm/ns to each channel within box. • Two additional driver boxes being constructed from existing drivers (for Grenoble, Yale) to be ready to use when SM assemby and testing begins
LED Monitoring System Status • New LED driver solutions: • Solution A: Ambitious: Build new 8 or 12 LED channel boards with amplitude and gain control via DAC • DAC control via modified FEE for LED readout to use FPGA on FEE to control LED boards • Need to prototype - might expect problems • Need to modify FEEs and develop FPGA code for control • Solution B: Better: Build new 8 or 12 LED channel boards with exactly same functionality of prototypes • Cheaper to build than individual drivers, less mechanical work, more elegant • Some risk of problems due to increased cross-talk • Possible to add additional cable delay of (n-1) ns * 20cm/ns to each channel?
LED Monitoring System Status • Need to design/build new RCU trigger boards • “Existing” RCU trigger boards have only trigger input to trigger DAQ externally via the RCU. • Basically a NIM to TTL convertor to give input signal of proper amplitude and width to RCU FPGA input. • Used in beam test and systems being shipped to Houston,Yale,etc…. • In ALICE, the LED system will be triggered by Pre-Pulse trigger, only available via TTC, I.e. available in RCU • Use RCU FPGA output to trigger LED drivers • Positive output only - not NIM signal - • Need to modify LED trigger fanout boards • Need new boards at time of SM installation • Design will be started when Valencia student arrives (September)
LED System: Other Issues • Decision to build 1m long 7x1mm extensions to 3mm fibers • Yes, at WSU • Location of fibers for monitoring LED output • At Strip module distribution on back of SM (default) • Or at coupling of extension to 3mm fiber near FEE crate • Tests underway by Francesco • Readout of monitoring fibers: 24 LEDs using 1 FEE card. • Photodiode+preamp+molex+T-card+ribbon to FEE • Either on back of SM, or at FEE crate (see above) • If on SM: must be <~3cm thick for clearance during SM insertion • Need to design T-card+preamp+APD+fiber fixture • T-card? • Default: Use normal EMCal T-card (12 of 16 channels used) • New T-card: Make a new 12-channel T-card as compact as possible
EMCal Trigger Status See talks by Hans and Olivier Summary: • Production of prototype TRU end of ~July • Production of prototype STU end of ~July • Prototype tests August-September • Production in Fall • Try to have TRUs installed at SM assembly sites for first SMs • If not, then should be installed in FEE crate prior to installation on CALFrame.

FEE / Trigger / DAQ Overview Same ReadOut for TPC/PHOS/EMCal • 9 FEE + 1 Trigger Region Unit (TRU) setup/readout via GTL bus. • Readout Control Unit (RCU) controls FEE on up to 2 GTL bus branches. • Detector Control System (DCS) RCU daughter card for FEE setup (e.g. APD bias) • Data to DAQ via Detector Data Link on RCU - passed to High Level Trigger.
Trigger / DAQ Connectivity • PHOS Trigger Region Unit (TRU) provides one L0 and 3 L1 triggers on shower energy (4x4 towers) - g and p0 trigger. • L0 and L1 triggers must be ORed before input to CTP. • An L1 EMCal jet trigger will require a new post-TRU trigger module - Summary Trigger Unit (STU). PHOS Trigger OR TOR-> EMCal STU
EMCal LED Gain Monitoring System • LED system needed for gain adjustment and gain monitoring. • One fiber per module (shown) excites WLS bundle - low efficiency. • 12 modules (fibers) per strip module fed by one 3mm fiber from remote LED to strip module. • Prototype LED driver used in test beam.
TTC link TRU L0 STU L1-gamma To CTP 32 TRU LVDS links L1-jet DDL 4 diff pair Ethernet CAT7 cable TRU DCS Put trigger data in the data stream on L2a (via DDL) TRU is clocked by the BC clock forwarded by STU (40.08MHz) Multiplicity from V0 Summary Trigger Unit (STU) STU specification : • L0 trigger : OR of the 32 L0 calculated by the TRU. • L1-gamma trigger: Energy summed over sliding window of 4x4 towers (2x2 fast OR) and compared to a multiplicity (V0 det) dependent threshold. • L1-jet trigger : Energy summed over a sliding window of n*n subregions and compared to a multiplicity dependent (V0) threshold.
Summary Trigger Unit (STU) STU Design : • Closely follows Trigger OR (TOR) design (shown). • TOR used by Grenoble in “LoopBack” test to demonstrate LVDS serial data link feasibility. • Main differences with TOR • TTC for better clock signal for serial clock • DDL link to insert trigger data into data stream • Virtex5 firmware • Plan to have TOR as STU as backup, and STU as TOR upgrade for PHOS.
Jet Trigger • New EMCal development (CERN, Jyvaskyla, Grenoble) • Upgrade of PHOS TRU FPGA from VIRTEX2 to VIRTEX5: programming, prototypes, tests. (MIE, CERN, Jyvaskyla) • Backup plan: PHOS TRU could be used for EMCal, but upgrade to VIRTEX5 will simplify implementation and reduce production cost. • TRU upgrade layout completed (CERN, Jyvaskyla) • Design, build, program, and test Summary Trigger Unit (STU) module. • Layout of STU just begun • TRU and STU prototype tests expected for May/June
