DCS for the ALICEElectromagnetic Calorimeter Michael Cherney Creighton University
Electronics Needs • 13250 Towers • 13250 Preamps • 1650 Transition Cards (fan in) • 210 Front End Modules (digitizers) • 30 Data Collection Modules (2 layers)
Preliminary Estimate of DCS Requirements for the EMC • 13250 channels of “High” Voltage • Non-standard System • 500 Low Voltage supplies • Non-standard System • 20 Electronics Racks
Progess Report • PVSS Basics training complete • Funding sufficient for DCS project • Development setup to be installed at Creighton this summer • Work will focus on non-standard driver development for PVSS
