  2. Summary of the LHC and ATLAS plans  LHC planning Phase 0 Phase I Phase II = HL-LHC 5 (Peak) x 2 (Leveling) = 10 Integrated nominal Luminosity  > 3 000 fb-1 2

  3.  ATLAS Phase I 3

  4.  ATLAS Phase II ATLAS/LPC deeply commited 4

  5. Summary of the Tilecal upgrade Phase 0 : Laser II, Crack + MBTS Phase I : Gap/Crack Phase II : Electronics FE and BE + Gap/Crack • Making of a Demonstrator of the electronics for both FE and BE • - Validated at the surface (Building 175) then in the ATLAS test beam. • - Inserted in ATLAS in Phases 0 and I. •  Final design. Series production (during Phase I) then insertion (LS3). 5

  8. Mini-Drawers 8

  9.  Present ATLAS scheme Drawersholding VFE and FE electronics: - long (1.40 m) and heavy (42 kg) objects (512 Drawers), - associated in pairs ofSuper-Drawers (256 Super-Drawers), - electronically inter-dependent within a Super-Drawer. Alignment recovery of PMTs/cells Drawer Girder ring Alignment from outside 9

  10. sATLAS scheme  Mini-Drawers (half Drawer long). • Easier handling. • Easiest access in a restricted space. • Electronically independent. Alignment recovery Adjustable contacts Finger Basket Slider Drawer Adjustable contacts The Slider is ″supported″ in the rear part of Girder rings Alignment from inside 10

  11. Slider 2 Mini-Drawers Basket 1 Insertion of a Mini-Drawer inside a Basket, then in the Slider, then in a LB Module. Building 175 20 June 2013 11

  12. Tests at 45° Validation of the Mini-Drawer concept from tests at CERN, in various Tilecal module positions (0°, 45°, 90°) in agreement with theoretical calculations. [Tilecal week, 7 October 2011] + last tests at CERN June 20-21 Validation of the Slider concept from tests at CERN, using 3 Tilecal modules at 90° [Tilecal week, 28 September 2012] + last tests at CERN June 20-21 Slider 2 12

  13. Validation of the whole system: LB Module + Finger + Slider + Basket + 4 Mini-Drawers  last tests at CERN June 20-21 95 cm Possible working in a restricted space 13

  14. Next steps • Sharing of the mechanics activities • - Mini-Drawer bodies: Bucharest. • - Mechanical links, cooling…: Barcelona. • - Handling tools: Clermont-Ferrand. Supervised by LPC • Clermont-Ferrand works • improvements of the present Mini-Drawers and tools •  Demonstrator Option 1 “Chicago-Stockholm” tested in September. • - Improved Mini-Drawers. • - Slider version 3. • - Basket Version 2. • + latter studies (Special long Basket, Patch Panel…) • See yesterday Mechanics meeting • https://indico.in2p3.fr/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=8593 14

  15. High Voltages 15

  16.  Summary of previous progresses Several options reported by LPC since a long time HV regulation inside/outside Drawers [Tilecal meetings: February 2008, November 2009, September 2012]  Clermont-Fd proposition to develop an outside option but ready to provide all the information on the present ATLAS inside option. to Argonne and Lisbon. - Re-cycling of HV cards inside a special crate put in the electronics room. - Design of HV bus cards sharing the individual HV’s (with noise killers). - Use of multiconductor cables to supply the HV bus cards. 16

  17.  Present status HV Bus boards ready to equip 3 trains of Mini-Drawers A cable tray will run 3 different cable lengths towards Drawers 2, 3 and 4 (Fixation holes made here) 17

  18. Regulation crate HV Source Operational DCS Various cable lengths • 1 m long. • 4 times 20 m long (175) • 100 m long, to reproduce ATLAS. 18

  19. Tests in progress and planning  Clermont-Ferrand tests HV tests in progress, with a PMT Block lighted by a blue LED  Noise measurements for different cable lengths: going on.  CERN tests - Made the last week in the building 175  Mini-Drawer handling/connection tests  Insertion of the crate in arack of the electronics room • Next steps in 175 •  HV tests by LPC, once the Clermont-Fd tests will be fully efficient. •  Equipment of Demonstrator 1 “Chicago-Stockholm” by September . 19

  20. PMT Dividers 20

  21.  Summary of previous progresses •  Goal: To keep the Tilecal performances (Linearity, energy resolution) for the • measurement of very high energies at the highest luminosities. •  Proposed solution: Replacement of present “Passive Dividers” by • “Active Dividers” keeping stable the voltage repartition in between every stage •  Use of active components (Transistors and diodes) in the last 3 stages, • in order to balance the current stream induced by Minimum Bias events. •  Preliminary results previouslyshown [Tilecal meeting, 17 June 2011]. Passive Dividers Active Dividers 21

  22.  Main results given in the Tilecal Note (The Note ATL-COM-TILECAL-2013-014 is not yet approved) Passive Active Test Bench of batch of 10 Dividers • Pure electronics tests • using the upgraded Divider Test Bench •  Interdynode voltage comparisons • without/with injected currents of • 10 Passive and 20 Active Dividers. •  Protocol for the certifications of productions. • Full tests of Dividers behind PMTs •  Comparisons for a given AC light (Signal) • of 20 sets ″PMT-Passive Divider-Active Divider″ • in function of the injected DC light (Minimum Bias). No other BE electronics than a scope 22

  23.  Summary of results - The Passive Dividers fit the ATLAS specifications for Tilecal PMTs, but not fully for Crack scintillators(and so MBTS). - The Active Dividers fit the sATLAS specifications for both Tilecal and Crack scintillators (and MBTs), within a wide range going well above the expected Luminosities.  The linearity (and the energy resolution) will be improved /ATLAS.  They could equip all the PMTs. - The Divider Test bench has been upgraded and can welcome Passive/Active Dividers. • A batch of 350 Active Dividers has been produced • for the Crack/MBTS scintillators and the tests are in progress. You are invited to make a short visit of the test system ! 23

  24.  Last tests to do: radiation tests (Gammas, neutrons)  Special PCB to irradiate: active components within a square 7x7 cm2. • 20 Dividers: whole last 3 stages + resistors simulating the other ones. • 16 Transistors alone + 8 Diodes alone (with direct/inverted polarities). • Everything supplied at the right HV and on-line monitored. Resistors Diodes Last 3 stages Transistors PCB to be irradiated Power Supply  Complete Test bench on-line monitored PCB • Hardware ready. • Software almost ready + working tests to do. • Needs only the connection to a laptop • under labview. USB interface Mux/DAQ 24

  25. Front End electronics 25

  26.  Summary of previous progresses  Demonstrator option 2 A single link to the Back End electronics, with the maximum of functionalities inside a custom-made ASIC IBM 130 nm technology holding: - Current conveyors. - ADCs. - Digital integration for Cs calibration. - Part of CIS calibration (DAC outside).  FATALIC family - Based on 3-gain current conveyor associated to shaping stages - Tested at home, then at CERN. FATALIC 1 (June 2010) FATALIC 2 (December 2010) Tests at CERN (LED, Cosmics') [Tilecal week, 7 October 2011] FATALIC 3 (November 2011) Tests at CERN (Digital int.) [Tilecal week, 28 September 2012] 26

  27.  ADC: TACTIC project  Architecture - ”Classical” pipeline ADC architecture. - 12 bits resolution. - 40 Msamples/second. - Technology IBM 130 nm. - Submitted August 2012, received in February 2013. TACTIC 1 (1.8 x 1.8 mm2) Part of Test bench Tests in progress: static and dynamic tests • The chip is alive. • Progress must made on the Test bench. 27

  28.  Next steps and planning •  Signal/noise ratio and number of effective bits • from sinwave  Fourier analysis. •  Collaboration with IPHC Strasbourg on a 3in1 board • with FATALIC3 + TACTIC1 bounded directly on the PCB. •  In the fall, decision about the following step: • either a TACTIC2 or a complete FATALIC 4 chip ? • The major issue will be the funding.  Works in parallel - Final designs of 3in1 card (with DAC) and Mother Board 2. - Improvement of the digital integrator at the noise level: noises are different at home and at CERN: WHY ?  new tests at CERN are foreseen. - Decisions on the peaking time and on the shape (now not symmetrical)  simulations in progress, going up to the optimal filtering. 28
