  1. CABB Science Day Lewis Ball CSIRO-ATNF Acting Director 13 May 2009

  2. CABB Science Day • Installation completed exceptionally smoothly • Scientific operations started 22 April 2009 • 160Gb/s per antenna, 1Tb/s total • As ambitious as the mm upgrade, more far-reaching • Zoom modes, 20cm, 13cm still to come

  3. CABB • Great team, …

  4. CABB • “In the area of digital signal processing.... The advanced design and short development  time of the new Compact Array Broadband Backend, which is enabled by utilising  the latest Field Programmable Gate Arrays, is comparable with the best at other  observatories. The sampling speeds and resolution of the digitisers now being tested for  CABB are amongst the highest achieved at any observatory. The ATNF was the first  observatory to use digital data transmission of radio astronomical data on optical fibres and their  use of this technology for CABB and [ASKAP] is state-of-the-art.”Melrose, Diamond, Napier and SandlandATNF Science Review, April 2007

  5. CABB • Great engineering • The next step is great science
