Design of the detector PCB SMA Connectors The 4-layers PCB Strips, spacers and the mesh are sticked on the PCB by a single process. Active Area • Detector: • EMC « design » • Signal integrityfromstrip to preamplifier crosstalk adaptation pb Fastsignalscapability HT AREA SHV Connectors HV Protection SHV Connectors Manufactured at CERN CEA | Le Ponant 21 novembre 2017
Front end module Front end electronics for nBLM prototype FAMMAS front-end module ( Fast Amplifier Module for MicromegasApplicationS) • Few figures: • Power supply : + / - 5V • Consumption 50 mW • Input : positive or negative • Noise : 600µV rms • Rise time :<1ns • Gain : 33dB • Size : 22x20x5 mm • Weight : 6g CEA | Le Ponant 21 novembre 2017
Signal rise time / Cable length • Test conditions: • Pulsegenerator : Lecroy 9210 • Oscilloscope Tektronix DPO 4104B Output pulse rise time = f(input pulse rise time) For differentcablelength Pulse rise time : 1ns CEA | Le Ponant 21 novembre 2017
Test with a source in lab with a 50m cable Short cable Long cable (50 m) • In both case good signal / noise ratio • No crosstalk • Individual neutron detection • Ready for test beams CEA | Le Ponant 21 novembre 2017
ESS nBLM signals cable We plan to use an extra shield around coaxial cables to increase the shielding • Cablecaracteristics : • LowAttenuation • Complete Shielding • Good shielding • Halogene Free CEA | Le Ponant 21 novembre 2017
Extra shielding Difficulties to find connectors for triaxial cables (see Edvard talk) • Extra shield: • Good and completeshielding (metalbraidedscreen) • Ground connection from external shielding • Signal coaxial cable AIFIRA - CNRS Same approach for low voltage cables 3C2OSHF CEA | Le Ponant 21 novembre 2017
New Front end board Toward the detector Mezzanine Board Easier maintenance Preamplifier Preamplifier Preamplifier Preamplifier Front End Board Size 10 x 6 cm Output : SMA Connectors Buffer : even if we have low Attenuation cables (rise time – 50m cable) Buffer Buffer Mezzanine board Toward LCF38-50J coaxial cable -> Digitizer Boards IOxOS FMC ADC 3111 CEA | Le Ponant 21 novembre 2017
