Read-Out Minicrate Operation Test pulse operation mode: testing and calibration of all the DT electronic chain. Artificial tracks are emulated at Front-End level, and then, selected channels are sequentially disabled to simulate vertical tracks along the chamber. RO-MC OPERATION MODE HAS BEEN THOROUGHLY TESTED AT LABORATORY: RO link reliability was tested with 30 m cable: BER <10-15 ROB power consumption ~ 3W, full MC ~130W. Water cooling at 20ºC water 1.5l/min provide maximum board temperature of 38ºC. ROB behaviour with temperature variations previously studied in cycling tests (0º-70º): small variations on regulator (5mV/30ºC), current (0.4mA/ºC) and time shifts ~ 14ps/ºC (max. 40ps/ºC at 40ºC). Lifetime tests of a ROB at 105ºC fully operational 4 months, no error found.

10 N31-4: “Electronics for the CMS Muon Drift Tube Chambers: the Read-Out Minicrate.” C.F. Bedoya. CIEMAT. Madrid, SPAIN. Rome. October 15th to 22nd, 2004. Read-Out Minicrate Production There are up to 20 types of read-out MC´s, depending on: - # channels of the DT chamber=> #ROB´s, from 3 to 7. - Position of the service side is different on each wheel => left and right MC´s. - Special chambers on CMS chimney location. Average weight ~ 8 Kg 2 meters 1 meter MC production is shared by CIEMAT, INFN Padova, INFN Bologna and RWTH Aachen. Each has manufactured a part of the 250 aluminium extrusions. CIEMAT has designed and produced most of the mechanical pieces and cables. MC assembly is performed in stages: 1. CIEMAT: where a Read-Out MC is assembled and tested. 2. Padova & Bologna: Trigger part assembly and full tests. 3. CERN: Assembly on DT chambers and final test. 12 to 16 MC/month foreseen rate. 39 Read-Out MC already assembled and tested.

RO-Minicrate Production Tests A test jig has been developed at CIEMAT to perform RO-MC functional testing in normal and test pulse mode, simulating input signals without using a DT chamber. - Check turn on of every board and short circuit flag line. - Insure proper ROB configuration: idcodes, PLL and DLL locking, buffers, etc. - Check Rob error signal status. - Monitorize 2.5V and 3.3V voltage, current and temperature of every ROB. - Check proper phase of 40MHz clock on every ROB and Trigger, Bunch and Event reset phase.
12 N31-4: “Electronics for the CMS Muon Drift Tube Chambers: the Read-Out Minicrate.” C.F. Bedoya. CIEMAT. Madrid, SPAIN. Rome. October 15th to 22nd, 2004. RO-Minicrate Production Tests - Data acquisition tests: 1º: one hit at a time to each channel. 2º: hits on every channel with HPTDC level disabling. 3º: simultaneous data on every channel. 4º: Test pulse sequences. Besides, always is checked: consecutive event number common event and bunch number on every ROB wordcount number HPTDC master identification ROB or HPTDC error and link unlock or parity error. Hit time digital measurement (value fixed by the test jig) These verifications insure: proper ROBUS operation (all lines), HPTDC´s configuration and control, CPLD operation, serializer, receivers, addressing circuitry, power supply circuitry, proper clock and rolink cables connection.... Functionality of every component and assembly of each element is verified. A purpose designed board has been developed at CIEMAT for the manufactured cable quality control.
13 N31-4: “Electronics for the CMS Muon Drift Tube Chambers: the Read-Out Minicrate.” C.F. Bedoya. CIEMAT. Madrid, SPAIN. Rome. October 15th to 22nd, 2004. Conclusions We conclude that the Read-Out Minicrate design and configuration works properly and accomplishes the imposed requirements. Therefore, we are confident in its proper operation inside the CMS environment. We have tried to minimize the limited maintenance problem with the employment of monitorization and sensoring elements, independent functional units and analysis of lifetime and burn-in tests. Read-Out MC production has already being launched, and the test jig designed and its functional tests have allowed to check for every error that a RO-MC could have due to assembly or to a component failure. We conclude that the design of the RO-MC is reliable for operation within the CMS detector.
