Why Thermal Test? The CMS detector will run at –20 C in order to lessen radiation damage to the silicon Lance Simms
Why Thermal Test Hybrids? Some Hybrids fail at –20 C • APVs do not output • Hybrid fails to initialize • Noise increases in cold (peltier current?) APV: Analog Pipeline Voltage Mode Chip Lance Simms

Building our own Construction & Repair Lance Simms
Slow Control First order of business: hooking things up • 5 temperature sensors • 1 humidity sensor 1 Water Flow Sensor 1 Air Flow Sensor Lance Simms
Interfacing to a PC: ACDC Lance Simms
Cooling Down Cooling Mechanism: Peltier Unit Supercool Peltier: • Voltage = 28 V • Current = 13 A • Power = 350 W Lance Simms
Cooling Down How long should/does it take to get to –20? Air Water Flow (14 L/min) Cold chamber Chiller Peltier + Plate Air Flow (0.05 L/min) Lance Simms
Simplifying things S= surface area of enclosure (m ) k=thermal conductivity of walls (W/m C) h=convection factor (W/m C) x=thickness of walls (m) Lance Simms
Simplifying things Assumptions: • Most of the heat transferred to the system goes into cooling the aluminum peltier plate (specific heat of aluminum is much greater than that of air) m= 2.0 kg c= 910 J/kg C Lance Simms
Simplifying things Assumptions 2) The convection factor can be calculated by waiting until the system comes to equilibrium Temp at equilibrium Lance Simms
Simplifying things Waiting… (I was too impatient to wait for t ) h= 7.55 (W/m C) Lance Simms
Calculating time to -20 First order linear differential equation: Solution: (T(t=0)=295K) Lance Simms
Not quite… Calculation says that plate should reach –20 in ~14 minutes. Actual time: ~21 minutes Possible problems: • Unaccounted heat influx through leaks or grounding strips connecting plate to outside • assumptions made are flawed • Missing term in differential equation Lance Simms
-20 Reached: On to Testing Set-up in Clean Room Electronics Cold Box Gas/Water Flow Control PC for Monitoring + Controlling Chiller Lance Simms
Testing Software: ARCSAPV Readout Control Software Communicates With ACDC via TCP/UDP Lance Simms
What are we testing for? Shorted channels: On each clock, charge injected into every 8th channel. Shorted channels share, ADC amplitude is diminished. 128 Channels per APV -6 APV hybrids: 768 -4 APV hybrids: 512 Lance Simms
What are we testing for? Open Channels: Inject charge through Capacitive coupling of pitch adapter to antenna carrying TTL Pulse Antenna Pitch Adapter Lance Simms

We thought it was the pulser LVDS ARC Board NIM TTL NIM Logic Lance Simms
LVDS Signal? • ARC Boards with functioning External Bus • Ser 29 • Ser 31 • ARC Boards with non-functioning External Bus • Ser 56 • Ser 57 • Ser 59 LVDS Signal Noise Lance Simms
ARC Controller Problem • Bad Batch of ARC BOARDS: LVDS Driver and LVDS Receiver U32 and U33 were switched during board assembly. Problem was never discovered. • External Buss connector and associated IC’s on lower left of photo. U32 Lance Simms
With Pulser Operational… • Opens detectable in “Scope Mode” Intentionally Plucked Bonds Show up in Pedestal Profile Lance Simms
With Pulser Operational…. • Opens are also detectable in Pedestal & Noise Test Plucked Bonds Lance Simms
Grounding Issues Huge spikes in noise at APV edges Same Problem CERN was having…. Lance Simms
Grounding • Ferrite Ring around Coax • G10/copper strips connect peltier plate to front end ground Lance Simms
Much Better Old Grounding New Grounding Lance Simms
Thermal Cycle Test “One Button” test Three Sets of Tests: • Pedestal & Noise • Pulser • Short Detection Lance Simms
Automated Test Results Final Report After Thermal Cycle Test: Lists -Shorts -Opens -Noisy Channels Lance Simms
The testing goes on… So far, about 100 hybrids have been thermal cycled. At maximum capacity: ~28 per day And the cycling will continue… Lance Simms
