Issues • FE boards on both edges of chamber to balance heat to avoid cables from side-to-side, need GBT on each edge • 2 GBTs per quadruplet instead of GBT per layer cabling is self-contained in one quadruplet loss of one GBT means quadruplet lost MM does GBT per layer for 4 quadruplets • Signal integrity • Zebra connectors, same as for MM • Slow Control Adapter, SCA, ASIC on every FEB for • Configuration of VMM and TDS via I2C • Temperature and voltage monitoring • Calibration of VMM? • E-link connectors from FEB to GBT board: candidate: twinax ribbon • Component height restriction: 9mm DC-DC height? • ?separate analog, digital gnds for VMM NSW Electronics workshop, November 2013
E-links E-link to each Companion, 80Mb/s 6 or 7 per strip FEB, 2 per pad/wire FEB clock TTC • data (If FELIX streams are used, status/monitoring data can also be sent on this link.) E-link to SCA, 80Mb/s, one per FEB clock configuration • configuration reply Can there be single clock pair from GBT? bussed or find a rad tol SLVS fan-out chip NSW Electronics workshop, November 2013
Wire group “FEB” Flex PCB to extract wire signals and bring them to FEB on edge Wires are read out by single VMM per layer on the Pad FEB Wire VMMs need extra protection: transient suppressor Max 64 wire groups per detector NSW Electronics workshop, November 2013
