E N D
Overview • Based on existing double PMC board • Satellite processor prototype • Utilizes VirtexII and discrete SERDES • Currently in use for jet finder algorithm development • Modified design will use V2Pro • Embedded SERDES (Rocket I/O) • Commercial multi channel optical links • Eight boards used for complete system • Six jet, two electron
System Implementation (Jet) • Data input • Accepts data from 3 RCT crates • 32 serial links at 1.6Gbps • Shares data with neighboring leaf • Data flows in one direction • Processing • Two Xilinx Virtex2Pro FPGAs • Virtex4FX devices not available yet • XC2VP70FF1513C • Three jet finders total
System Implementation (electron) • Data Input • Accepts data from 9 RCT crates • No sharing required • Processing • Two Xilinx Virtex2Pro FPGAs • XC2VP501513C • Easily handles requirements • Re-use of hardware less expensive than new design

Design resources • Based on Los Alamos design • Double wide PMC developed for Lockheed Martin Space systems • >60% of current design retained • Los Alamos Team available • Contract in progress • Team has started work • Division of labor • CERN provides schematic modifications • Los Alamos checks design, lays out and fabricates prototypes
Current Status • Schematics had been released • Algorithm testing identified logic capacity problem • Larger part required (V2P50 -> V2P70) • Package change required • Schematics need to be revised • Los Alamos aware of change • New symbols being built • Cost impact ~$14K • One week effort wasted • New decoupling and part layout • Equivalent to 1.5 weeks funding • Included in most recent Contract proposal
Manpower and Schedule • One person at CERN • 3 months design (1/4 – ½ time) • Two at Los Alamos • 3 months layout (full time) • 1 month engineering (1/3 time) • 3 months to prototype order (ARO) • 4 months to first hardware delivery
