Measurement of dose at a copper target intercepting beam (120 GeV/c) The fluence spectra close to the beam loss points in the LHC will be similar to those present at the CERF experiment RPL1 RPL2 Al2 Al1 Comparison between simulation and measurement presented last year. Agreement very good. Dose close to beam loss point can be measured in a reliable way. LHC Radiation Day, B. Dehning

Radiation hardness policy • Radiation hardness policy defined and agreed upon with all sub-systems from the beginning (at same time as defining front-end architecture) • This took some time and we all had to educate our selves in this field that was new to many (1999 – 2001) • Multiple meetings and workshops • Ratified by LHCb technical board (2001) • Radiation level simulations made • MARS: 1999 – 2000 • FLUKA: 2001 – 2003 (still ongoing for locations with changes, e.g. LHC machine equipment) • Safety factors • Simulation: 2 • Components: ~10 (In certain cases we have had to accept lower values for this) • Testing: 2 (lower if justified) • Failure types and rates: • Different risk factors in different locations (SEL, SEB) (accessible or not) • Different types of data (SEU): • Event data itself does not need SEU protection (like a bit of extra noise) • Event headers should be protected (system synchronization) • Control state machines must be protected • Configuration must be protected • Control interfaces must be very reliable (used to recover system when problems) • Reset procedures • Qualification procedure (profiting from work done by ATLAS/CMS) • All circuits used in detector and cavern MUST be radiation tested • Verified during reviews LHC Radiation Day,
Radiation hard/tolerant electronics • In detectors: ASIC’s • ~12 LHCb specific ASIC’s • Most implemented in 0.25um CMOS with radiation hard layout (enclosed transistors) and triple redundant storage elements in critical parts (configuration and control logic) • A few chips in 0.8 um BiCMOS • Radiation tests performed • Use of LHC generic radiation hard circuits: TTCrx, GOL, QPLL, Delay25, linear power regulator • In cavern or on periphery of detectors: Use of Commercial Of The Shelves (COTS) components in many cases possible. • Circuits must be tested or find reliable radiation test elsewhere (HEP, SPACE) • Total dose in most cases not problematic (modern CMOS) • Single event latchup problematic and must be avoided (with one exception in LHCb) • Neutrons does not affect modern CMOS circuits • Neutrons could be problematic for optoelectronics • SEU rates must be estimated to predict system reliability (not so easy) • Triple redundant logic in central functions (control, ECS) and when ever possible. • Problem of traceability between tested circuits and final circuits mounted on boards. • Significant time delay ( 1 - 2 years) between purchasing test samples and final quantities • Difficult to verify that circuits are made with identical processing • Change of Fab. ? • Internal/external second sourcing • We have been forced to take this risk • Doing our best to verify that technology and fabrication line have not changed. LHC Radiation Day,
Commercial electronics (COTS) • Two types of FPGA’s have been found appropriate for use at limited (~10krad) radiation levels in cavern • Antifuse FPGA: • No problem with corruption of configuration (general reliability of antifuse have been problematic in the past) • But can not be reconfigured either (nearly like an ASIC) • No SEL seen in radiation tests of new antifuse series • Triple redundant registers needed for critical parts • Flash based FPGA • Flash configuration does not get corrupted • No SEL seen in latest series (proASIC+) • Triple redundant registers needed for critical registers • General infrastructure logic may though be problematic (startup, JTAG) • Small part of chip and therefore very small cross-section • We do not want to use SRAM configuration based FPGA’s (e.g. Xilinx) • It has been seen that chips in same technology and same chip family has had different behavior (SEL) • In one case an ADC with a potential SEL problem (seen with ions) has dedicated external protection circuit with self recovery. • 12 way optical transmitter seen to have small cross section of short link errors from “SEU” • This could de-synchronize our readout/trigger and be problematic as 7000 optical links used in LHCb • Enforced use of link idles to resync links on the fly. • We do not want to use microcontrollers , PLC’s and CPU’s in experimental cavern. • One exception with ELMB having a dual checking processor and software with watchdogs (ATLAS development and qualification) • I personally have some small worry on this, but mainly used for environment monitoring Calorimeter board LHC Radiation Day,
