  1. A fast LED driver prototype for HCAL calibration CALICE meeting at ANL, USA Ivo Polak, IPASCR, Prague

  2. Proposal for calibration system • Fast LED driver is a key part of calibration system • A tunable calibration light in the range 0 to 100MIP • Simplification of the optical system: one LED -> one side emitting fibre, one row of scintillator tiles • See Jara’s talk Comments on optical system II Ivo Polak, IoP Prague

  3. LED driver strategy not only for SiPM calibration • At AHCAL prototype (uses SiPM), we used CMB, calibration system with UV-LED 400nm driven by very fast rectangular pulses (1ns rise/fall time). • Steep Rectangular waveform satisfied the needs to vary pulse-width, BUT creates lots of harmonics  electromagnetic crosstalk! • We have found fixed pulse-width to about 6ns, we can go to use narrow band ->smooth waveform ≈ less RF interference = Quasi Resonant LED driver (single pulse) Ivo Polak, IoP Prague

  4. 2CH board primary tested With printed Cu inductor 2ns pulse-width Prototyping Used my lovely single side copper foil PCB We need more work on components optimization to recent LED Quasi-Resonant LED driverLC circuit, heavily dumped • Simulation pulse-width 5ns with 33nH inductance Ivo Polak, IoP Prague

  22. Different LEDs • More different LEDs will be tested • “PPT UVLEDs” 400nm are very fast! • One blue pioneer has been tested • Each type of the LED needs a bit of matching of 2 components at QRled driver Ivo Polak, IoP Prague
