SciFi tracker DAQ for KEK beam test M. Yoshida (Osaka Univ.) MICE meeting at LBNL 09.Feb.2005
KEK beam test • Test for the SciFi tracker with 1T solenoid magnetic field • p/p/m test beam line in KEK-PS • Slow extraction from the internal target in 2-sec flat top of a 4-sec spill • Add 4th station to the prototype tracker • Newly developed Cryostat with Cryocooler • 2 VLPC cassettes embeded
DAQ for the KEK beam test • Readout TOF counters and the other. • CAMAC ADC/TDC • Readout AFEII on VLPC cassette • In KEK beam test, ~1k particles / spill • MICE beam ~600 muons / 850 usec • Existing system used for cosmic-ray test is rather slow ~40 events / pulse • Need memory module to store data in MICE situation with fast LVDS data links
LVDS receiver boards • AFEII puts serialized ADC data on LVDS data links • Need to deserialize before storing into FIFO • Solution: • Custom-made VME board (Fermilab) • 4 LVDS data links / board • (MCM serialize) cable (deserialize FIFO) VMEbus • Backup: • Existing FIFO board (KEK) • 32-bit inputs / board • (MCM serialize) cable deserialize cable FIFO board VMEbus • LVDS interface boards have been produced

DAQ Software • Will use Unix-based DAQ programs • “Unidaq” developed by KEK • A lot of experience at the KEK beam tests • Server – Client system • An Event Builder • Collectors for CAMAC readout (TOF etc.) and VME readout (VLPC) • Transport data via Network Shared Memory • Processes can be distributed to PCs on the network.
Processes • Event Builder • Merge data from collectors • Send event data to data storage system • Collector for TOF etc. (CAMAC) • Control trigger system via input/output register module on CAMAC • Read ADC and TDC • Send data to event builder • Collector for VLPC (VME) • Collect data in LVDS receiver boards • Send data to Event Builder • Slow Control for VLPC (VME) • Via 1553 interface board on VME to AFEII • Not synchronized to DAQ cycle • Set thresholds of discriminators on AFEII at the beginning of the data taking run • Temperature control
Status • Test-bench with VME readout modules in fermilab was built in Dec. 2004 • Succeeded to control 1553 / SASeq modules from Linux-PC via Bit3 interface card. • AFEII almost debugged • 5 boards of LVDS receiver has been made in fermilab with US-JP joint budget • Will test LVDS receiver boards with AFEII in Feb. 14th-17th • Need integration DAQ test in Fermilab settle to KEK
