  2. Outline of Talk • Goals for the LVPS Upgrade • Current Plans & Thinking • Primary Issues, Critical Decisions, Required R&D • Summary

  3. General System Guidelines and Goals for the LVPS System • Primary Motivation: Improve radiation hardness of electronics • LVPS bricks must be replaced for sLHC environment… • Improve Reliability • Connectors • Reduce number of connections & interconnects • Improve reliability and robustness of connectors • Implement redundancy to prevent single-point failures • Generally reduce complexity of system where possible • Reduce numbers of voltages to be generated • Eliminate sensitivities to IR drops • Eliminate need for tight regulation by LVPS • Use “point-of-load” regulators  CERN rad-hard regulators

  9. Point of Load Regulators +/-10VDC POL REGs Local CKTs • Contact persons: F. Faccio & G. Blanchot • More info http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=39721 • We will be testing prototypes as soon as they become available • Caveat: Not working on rad-hard negative voltage regulators (yet)… • Work is in progress at CERN to develop rad-hard DC-DC Converter to be used as local point-of-load regulators • Use one by every chip, or group of chips, depending on current demand • Primary development is for silicon tracker  high radiation environment • TileCAL radiation environment is less demanding, so we can piggyback • Some Parameters: • Radiation hard DC-DC converters with air-core inductors • Low drop voltage regulators in 130nm and below • DC-DC buck converter architecture • Vin: +10 ~ +12V, Vout: +1.8 ~ +5V, 6W, 85 – 90% efficiency • Radiation and magnetic field hard

Modified from Graphic by G. Usai, UC * Numbers in parentheses for implementing redundancy

  13. Implementing Redundancy Vd2 PCB • How to implement power supply redundancy: Diode OR • Greater of (Vs1 – Vd1) or (Vs2 – Vd2) provides current to load • Diodes may share if diode IV characteristics are soft, and/or if 2 paths ~match • No need to bin diodes; Only moderate trim of output voltages needed • On average, power supplies will each share half the total load, within window • Power supplies on average operate at half their rated power  aids in longevity • Each power supply must be capable of providing full power though Vload Vd1 + - + - Vs2 Vs1 Load • Technique used successfully for CDF Run 1 • Need more experience with current system to decide if this is worth it…

  14. Monitoring & Control • Probably will want to monitor same quantities as presently: • 8 input voltages • 8 output voltages • 8 input currents • 8 output currents • Temperatures • The difference: only 2 sets of quantities, not 8… • No longer need to monitor sense lines, if use POL regulators… • Control • No longer need trim control  regulators are insensitive to their Vin • Will want method for turning on & off whole boxes • May want method for turning on & off individual bricks…

  15. Primary Issues, Critical Decisions, Required R&D • Need to choose a system architecture • Need to identify and specify all components in the drawer • Identify voltages needed • Define currents needed • Define total voltage, current, and power consumption for drawer • Point-of-Load Regulators • Based on needs, will CERN regulator be sufficient? • Obtain prototype samples; performance testing; radiation testing • Is there any circuitry that can’t operate within +/-5V? • What to do about negative voltage regulator • CERN? • Another IC design group? • Commercial vendor? • Preliminary brick component selection • Radiation testing • Decision on implementing redundancy • Experience with current system will be a good guide…

  16. Primary Issues, Critical Decisions, Required R&D (Cont.) • Control & monitoring • GBT? • New ELMB_MB equivalent? • Custom chip development? • Needs more thought & work… • Prototype brick design • Can begin early, with approximate guesses on current & power • Will need final specs to complete design • Design for factor of 2 capability if implement redundancy • Design for 80% maximum capacity on a single supply • Connector Decisions • Depends on • Architecture • Currents • Distribution of loads • Includes power connections, & all internal connections inside box • Possibly the most important decision in the project

  17. Summary • Advocating 3 stage power distribution system • Stage 1 – bulk 200V in USA15  OK • Stage 2 – LVPS boxes • New design • +/- 10V only • Tight regulation not important • Advocating balanced loads • Stage 3 – Point-of-Load regulators • Relying on CERN development for positive voltage regulator • Still need to identify/develop negative voltage regulator • Primary issues needing to be addressed: • System architecture • Drawer electronics design  voltages & currents required • Point of load regulators: test CERN design; address negative voltages • Component selection  radiation testing • Address need for redundancy • Choose connectors • Prototype development… Testing… FE tests… Vertical Slice Tests…
