  4. Production of LTUs for NA62 • All components checked – only one component obsolete (CY7C1382B-133AC) but it is possible to buy from a grey market • The production time depends on delivery of components (longest delivery is 10 weeks) plus 5-10 days manufacture • The price for one LTU without any changes is 900 pounds

  6. Proposed changes for LTU New front panel VME64x compatible (ELMA 36D604-6) New connectors: • CHOKE/ERROR (RJ9 – 2 LVDS in) • CHOKE/ERROR for L0 processor (RJ9 – 2 LVDS out) • BURST (NIM in) • Warning injection (Lemo - ECL,NIM, LVDS ???) • 1 spare ECL input ??? • 1 spare NIM input ???

  7. New labels for front panel • A, B (LVTTL – scope output) o.k. • PLSR (ECL in) o.k., L1 (ECL out) -> L0 (ECL out) • Spare (ECL out) o.k., ORBIT(ECL out) -> L0 data (ECL out) • BC (ECL in) o.k., PP (NIM out) -> Spare (NIM out) • BURST (NIM in ???) • CHOKE/ERROR (LVDS in) • CHOKE/ERROR (LVDS out) • Warning injection (NIM in ???)

  8. Software for LTU NA62 • LTU software for • Configuration and Control • Monitoring • L0 processor emulation • Development of new software discussed in Bratislava: which fraction of ALICE software could be reused or taken as an model 9/12/2009 8

  9. Summary • Compatibility test of ALICE LTU with TELL1 was successful • Production time of LTU board is 12 weeks • Time for the front panel changes is 1 week • Cost of LTU including changes is 1000 pounds (approx. 1,6K CHF) • I need definition of signals BURST and Warning injection (NIM, ECL, LVDS)

  10. Back up slides

  11. Dictionary • TTC - Timing, trigger and control • LTU – Local trigger unit • TTCex – TTC encoder/transmitter module • TTCit – Interface Test board • TTCoc – optical coupler (fan out of optical signals)

  12. TTC requirements • Distribute a clock at 40 MHz • Jitter < 50 ps RMS • Distribute: - triggers (6 bits for each trigger) - start of burst - end of burst - event counter at the end of burst - warning ejection signals

  13. Clock distribution and data flow Triggers L0 processor 40 MHz clock source Trigger inputs BUSY/ ERROR Clock + Triggers TTC partition LTU + TTCex LTU + TTCex LTU + TTCex LTU + TTCex . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

  14. Alice LTU+TTCex+(20dB att./TTCoc) 6U VME cards 1 LTU+TTCex per detector !!! Optical transmission of A and B channel TTCex Local Trigger Unit LTU (Alice) Monitoring of TTC TTCit TTCoc 1:32 Trig. data from CTP LVDS (7) Burst Warning ejection (WE) Detector BUSY/ERROR 31 optical outputs to FEE ser. data channel A ser. data channel B clock clock 40 MHz clock source

  15. LTU • Global mode • Receive triggers from L0 processor • Local mode • Emulate L0 processor - triggers (start signal can be: BC downscale, random, Pulser input) • Serialize trigger data for TTC ch.B • Encode triggers and send them to TTC • Receive BUSY/ERROR from detector • and propagate it to L0 processor • Snapshot memory – 27 ms

  16. LTU I/O for NA62 Clock input – ECL signal Pulser input – ECL input Burst input - NIM input Warning injection – LVDS input Scope probe outputs – 2 LVTTL outputs Ser. data ch.A and B - 2 ECL outputs BUSY/ERROR – LVDS input BUSY for L0 processor – LVDS output 16-pin connector 7 LVDS links 2 LVDS inputs 1 NIM input 2 ECL input 4 LVDS outputs 2 LVTTL outputs 2 ECL outputs 1 NIM output

  17. TTCex • ECL input for external clock • ECL inputs for TTC channel A and channel B • 10 optical outputs • Incorporates encoders driven by an internal VCXO/PLL with very low jitter and can deliver the optimum optical signal level (-19 dBm) through 1:32 tree couplers to 320 destinations

  18. TTC channel B format 16 bits at 40MHz, max. rate 2,5 MHz (8 data bits) 42 bits at 40MHz, max. rate 0,9 MHz (16 data bits) If 14b TTCrx ADDR == 0 => also Broadcast command/data

  19. TTCrx chip (Broadcast data) • 2 of 8 bits already used for TTCrx internal resets

  20. TTC format for NA62 • A channel - L0 trigger: synch. signal (25ns pulse if ‘L0 accept’) • B channel • L0 trigger type: asynch. message – short broadcast (6-bits info related to 25 ns pulse), Event counter at the end of burst • Start of burst, end of burst, warning ejection (a few µs before spill), warning warning ejection (1 s before spill) – short broadcast message (priority message - guaranteed time precision by inhibit interval !)

  21. Firmware upgrade for NA62 • NA62 will use only short broadcast (6 bits for trigger type) !!! • upgrade LTU for sending 6-bits short broadcast • make inhibit interval only 400 ns - only for short broadcasts which need time precision • Add input signal for Start/End of burst • Add input signal for Warning injection • Implement new functionality (Burst counter, ……

  22. Software for LTU NA62 • LTU software for • Configuration and Control • Monitoring • L0 processor emulation • Part of ALICE software may be reused

  23. Current Alice LTU software • CTP emulator on LTU board • Start signal for CTP emualtor • Frequency • Counters

  24. What do we need in the lab ? • Precise clock generator (40.078 MHz) • 6U VME crate • VME processor • LTU module • TTCex module • 20 dB attenuator/TTCoc • Lemo cables • Single mode optical fibers • Appropriate software

  25. Only reminder – there exists independent monitoring of TTC • TTCit board • Receives data from TTCrq • (TTCrx + QPLL) • Decoding of data • Display triggers and possible • trigger errors on the front panel • Read snapshot memory with • zero suppression via VME bus • 2 LVTTL outputs for scope • 1 LVDS input

  26. Location of TTC partitions in NA62 • It should be in the center in order to have similar delay to fares detectors • 3 possibility: • Technical gallery • Barak with electronics directly in cavern • Control room (probably too far, necessary to make calculation how much extra delay will be there)

  27. LTU cost & time scale for production Estimation of time scale for production: • Buying of components and PCB production: 5 - 6 weeks • Assembly: 2 – 3 weeks • Test: 1 - 2 weeks Estimation of cost: • 3 kCHF

  28. New TTCex • Advantages – new VCXO which is less expensive and available, possibility to switch off lasers which are not used • First prototype – spring 2010 • Production – summer 2010 • Cost – 3500 CHF (500 CHF less than current TTCex) • Cost can decrease if you don`t need 10 lasers (1 laser = 300 CHF) – lasers are in removable socket

  29. Summary • Distribution of Clock and Triggers • Emulation of L0 processor sequences : detectors can use it before L0 processor is available • Modification of ALICE LTU (firmware and software) • (almost) independent of L0 processor design • For beginning we can borrow a few(6 ???) TTCex from LHC experiments • New version of TTCex is better for NA62 (availability of components) • 1 LTU board (3 kCHF) + 1 TTCex (3,5 kCHF) = 6,5 kCHF/per detector (most expensive part on TTCex is laser 200 CHF/pc, so there is option to have only 1 laser assembled and use TTCoc 1:32 = 1 kCHF) • 1 LTU (3 kCHF) + 1 TTCex-1laser (1,5 kCHF) + 1 TTCoc 1:32 (1 kCHF) = 5,5 kCHF/per detector -> for 32 optical receivers/FEE !!! - TTCit board(1,2kCHF) for monitoring and debugging purpose if necessary

  30. Back-up

  31. Test of max. trigger rate with LTU (Alice) board • Max. trigger rate (individually-addressed frame, 16 bits data word) measured on TTCit board is 0.9 MHz Local Trigger Unit LTU (Alice) Optical transmission TTCex Optical receiver TTCit VME Interface FIFO Optical fiber Data processing ser. data channel B

  32. TTC interface on LTU board • 5 different priorities for B channel • inhibit interval 44 BC(1,1µs) after Broadcast command request • (in order to have exact time for start of burst, event reset ???) • 128x32-b FIFO for trigger data (option for sw generated commands • available via VME) ALICE format
