  1. Beam Position MonitorsFacility Advisory CommitteeOctober 12, 2006 • Action Items from previous review • Requirements / Specifications • System overview • Status • Schedule

  2. Action Items from Previous FAC • Decide on a Digitizer • Echotek glitches, lockups, lack of progress • Plan B  Plan A: • Select 4 channel PAD digitizer. • Fix schedule • Still schedule trouble • Plan barely finishes on time • No schedule contingency

  3. PRD 1.1-314 Full document:

  4. Beam Position Monitor System Analog Frontend Version Three

  5. Beam Test • 100 machine pulses • Effective beam charge 0.35 nC • sy = 2.5 microns

  6. 30 400 Resolution vs. Charge • Measured with beam in machine • Tightest machine requirement: 5 micron resolution @ 200 pC • Achieve 4 micron resolution @ 200 pC • Resolution scales like 1/Q for the three measured bunch charges, as expected 5mm @ 200pC

  7. Linearity • Measured IP3 of BPM signal path • found IP3 within a few dB of calculation • Bench test of apparent position vs. amplitude looks good • Test consists of 15 kHz AM of 140 MHz signal • Results impeccable. • But beam test shows big amplitude  position modulation • Discovered prototype not built to schematic • Gain distribution wrong  Fixed • Took further steps: • Raise amp idle current 90 mA  140 mA • Reduce bandwidth of first filter, raise that of second filter • Narrowband filter before 2nd gain stage

  8. Status • Prototype meets resolution requirement • Stability not well established • Long weekend test looks great • But doesn’t apply controlled temperature cycles • Attempt to resurrect CPE environmental chambers not successful • Thermal cycle tests yet to be performed • Proceeding with first article production

  9. Calibration • Calibrate through BPM • Via stripline-stripline coupling • Not prototyped

  10. Schedule What should be done: (E.M. 9/20/2006) • PCB layout – end of September - 29 ? • PCB fabrication – one week – October 9 ? • PCB assembling – one board here – October 13 • Chassis layout – September 28 • Panels punching and painting - early October • buy the rest of the components – connectors, resistors, capacitors, etc. • buy 23 chassis • Write detailed test procedure

  12. BPM Controls Description • User Interface Layer (EPICS, SLC-aware) • VME IOC • Converts raw waveforms into X,Y,TMIT and feeds them (timestamped) to SLC. • Conversion parameters are Pvs • Controls calibration • PAD IOC • Sends raw data upstream (dedicated ethernet) • Diagnostic EPICS PVs

  13. Software Functionality (Day 1) • From SLC-aware IOC • averaged BPM readings • buffered acquisition • EPICS • raw waveforms • conversion params. (raw position -> x,y) • attenuator settings • diagnostics

  14. Functionality (Near Future) • Calibration [some features may be present at day one; untested]. • More sophisticated history buffers [other than SLC 'buffered acq'] • Filtering of beam codes in EPICS • Adjusting to beam charge in 'real-time'

  15. Conclusions • Good performance demonstrated • Schedule critical
