  1. FEE Installation & Commissioning TPC Meeting, 21 April 2006 L. Musa

  2. Electronics Installation and Commissioning Schedule PHASE I • Installation of FECs and Backplanes Jan ’05 - Mar ’06 • electrical and functional test of each FEC • test of the connection between FECs and pad plane • test of the connection between FECs and readout backplane PHASE II • Characterization of the whole system with RCUs Mar – May ’06 • Characterization of 1 readout partition at a time: noise, gain, width, baseline, time offset, temperature, voltages and currents PHASE III • Installation of RCUs May – Aug ’06 • Comprehensive test of all (216) readout partitions: FEE, DAQ, DCS, TRIGGER, HLT, ECS (power bars and cooling required)

  3. FE Cards Installation 1/2 • Organization and schedule • 2 installation crews (3 people / crew) • Installation started on the 30th January • Installation rate: ~ 1 sector / day • Status • Installation of FECs completed (on March 15), with exception of 1 sector on C side • Installation of Readout &Control backplanes completed by end of March, with exception of 1 sector on C side • The electronics of 1 sector (A09), equipped with the LV bus rods and cooling, was characterized (pedestals, noise, gain) • The electronics of sector A08 is under test

  4. FE Cards Installation 2/2 During the installation, the FECs are tested individually (stand-alone) by means of a dedicated “mounting test tool”, U2F (USB to FEC interface) • Readout of trigger related data (pulser) • Connection to the pad plane • Measurement of VCCA, VCCD, IA, ID and T • Measurement of the FEC Identifier U2F Card

  5. FE Cards Installation highlights

  6. TPC A Side (17th February ’06)

  7. Characterization of Sector A09 • Sector A09 equipped with • backplanes • cooling circuit • LV power rods • LV PS + cables (4 x 40m)

  8. Characterization of Sector A09 - IROC sum of charges, pad row 46 sum of charges baseline noise rms (ADC counts)

  9. Characterization of Sector A09 - IROC sum of samples baseline rms baseline  (PASAnoise2 + ADCnoise2) = 0.70 ADC counts

  10. Characterization of Sector A09 - OROC sum of charges sum of charges, pad row 11 baseline noise rms (ADC counts)

  11. Characterization of Sector A09 - OROC sum of samples sum of samples baseline rms baseline rms

  12. Readout Control Unit 1/2 SIU CARD RCU status and plans … DCS CARD Power Regulators

  13. Readout Control Unit 2/2 Production, test, installation and commissioning • Mass Production (240 units including 10% spares) • completed November ‘05 • Mass Test • completed December ’05 • Delivery of tested DCS cards Mar ‘06 • Delivery of tested SIU cards (DAQ project): • 1st lot (108 units) Mar ’06 • 2nd lot (108 units) May ‘06 • Assembly and final test of RCU + SIU + DCS: Apr – Jun ‘06 • Installation and commissioning of RCUs: May – Aug ‘06

  14. Preparing for Commissioning Phase III • RCU Lab - setup I  Final assembly and test of RCU + SIU + DCS • 25 FECs (readout partition) + Backplane + RCU • 1 DAQ PC (PCALD23) + single-channel RORC • 1 DCS PC (local network DHCP server, DIM Server) + Ethernet Switch • Local Trigger Crate (SBC, LTU, TTvi, TTCex) + TTCoc • RCU Lab - setup II  TPC FEE + DAQ + HLT Integration • 2 x Readout Partitions • 1 DAQ PC (EPAITBEAM02) + dual-channel RORC • 1 HLT PC + 1 HRORC • P2 SXL2 – Test of the electronics, 1 Sector at a time • 1 x Readout Partition • 1 DAQ PC (ALDAQPC021) + dual-channel RORC

  15. Conclusions • Installation of FECs almost complete (97% done) • The complete electronic chain of one TPC sector has been characterized • gain, baseline and noise distributions well within specifications • Installation of backplanes was completed by Mar ’06 • Installation and commissioning of RCUs in May - Aug ‘06
