Parity violation experiment for protonic quark structure G0 Experiment
Problem 1: Phasing TOA • Concept: Lock 499 MHz to coincide with arrival of G0 beam. Look for timing differences associated with different helicity orbits. • Easy, but……! • G0 Beam structure only fills every 16th bucket. 31 MHz subharmonic at –95 dBm • Available beamline components respond to either microwave or audio! • 100 ps window with ~100 us settling time
Problem 2: Phase Ambiguity • 499 MHz and 1497 MHz produce 16 and 48 zero-crossings per trigger event, resulting in cycle ambiguity of 2Pi/n. Simple pre-scaling not feasible. • Zero-th “bin” must be located (and tracked during LOL) to +/- 334 ps.

SPD • PECL-based SPD has < 100 ps risetime and < 1 ps cycle-to-cycle jitter. • Exceptional temperature stability wrt decision logic threshold ultimately sets sample resolution to ~1 ps. Courtesy AD Automation, Inc.
Real Hardware….. • SPD and 31 MHz PLL/Tracking filter
Real Hardware (cont.) • Receiver Chassis
Baseband DSP Processor • Loop IIR, PID, and Timing functions
PID • SystemView (MATLAB) used to conjure initial P, I, and D constants for each loop. • Ziegler-Nichols “employed” to optimize for 0.5 damping with 100 us risetime. Timing and Loss-of Lock
Bench Testing (Sensitivity) • 1 ps 30 Hz delay easily recognizable with > 10 dB S/N. Subsequent tests showed 10 fs MDS.
Old principles never die! Easily extended to high-BW ADCs PECL SPD reliable and easy to construct FPGA radiation resistant (for FLASH)! Other Applications: Multi-freq VVM DC at Cavity Thank you!!!!!!!!! Conclusion, Parting Shots….
