TKR Trigger Timing

TKR Trigger Timing. We need guidance to understand results from data analysis with cosmic rays when TEM diagnostics are enabled As Mike points out this is NOT the default mode on orbit when the LAT is fully assembled our tests should not be dependent on the TEM diagnostics

  1. TKR Trigger Timing • We need guidance to understand results from data analysis with cosmic rays when TEM diagnostics are enabled • As Mike points out this is NOT the default mode on orbit • when the LAT is fully assembled our tests should not be dependent on the TEM diagnostics • Currently diagnostics are being used to • Understand if trigger primitive and strip data are consistent under several instrument configurations • What does consistent mean? (see next slide) • Evaluate trigger efficiencies (TKR)

  2. Cosmic Ray data: 1 and 2 tower tests • Question: • If a trigger primitive(Treq) fired in one plane, shall we have a strip hit (digi) in that plane? 5 tick window “missing” strip hits “missing” trigger primitives 12 tick window

  3. TKR Trigger Timing for cosmic rays • We decided to revisit the “timing” diagram (thanks for the input Mike) because of differences in the instrument configuration between 1 and 2 tower tests • Trigger window width • Single tower • 5 ticks (250ns) • We sample diagnostics near the opening of the window (see last 2 slides) • Two tower • 12 ticks (600ns) • We sample diagnostics near the closing of the window (see last 2 slides • TKR hold delay for TEM diagnostics (same for all tests) • 9 ticks (450ns)

Only AFTER we know that a valid trigger happened (TAM + TACK) the trigger primitives can be latched. In this separate line a delay of at least 7 ticks = 350 ns (X) should be added to hold the TEM diagnostic information. We set to 9 ticks=450 ns Collect charge and transfer to the end of the plane GTIC makes a 3-in-a-row out of TREQs and (align) them GTIC knows about masks (layers,cables…) 750 ns
