RECEIVER CRATE [RF_Rx – ‘Digital’ version] • Proposed by PH/ESS to AB/RF to replace the Analogue version where a cheaper laser could do the job. • Typically 400MHz or 40MHz clocks, Orbits, etc… • If accepted by AB/RF, would be supported and maintained by them as well. • Design done by PH/ESS (A. Monera) • The corresponding Transmitter module has been designed by PH/ESS as well • 6U VME (VME 64x and VME 64 compatible) • 3 types of optical receivers according to various requirements • Various types of receivers can be plugged with minor hardware adjustments • Allows us to compare their performances in real conditions • Internal registers • Signal detect (R) • Frequency detect for each channel (Read Only) • Threshold level adjustment (R/W) • Firmware very close to the Analogue version EDA-1382 A.
