Data gain table (and with/without DAC table)
H. Miyamoto for PDM & DP teamLAL/IN2P3/Univ. Paris-Sud XI
3 kinds of Data taken during the flight• DAC 250 (no gain table, no DAC table)
– No threshold adjustment, nor gain equalization– 13 NIST pixels obtained in pre-flight calibration– C. Moretto’s presentation
• Data with DAC table– PDM calibration was done in this condition– 20 NIST pixels obtained in pre-flight calibration
• Data with gain table (with DAC250)– Gain table based on the calibration with test_ec_board is used.– HV majority for each EC_unit are 1000~1100V instead of 950V (operation
voltage)– Not optimized with PDM condition, but still better equalization in pulse
heights– Taken mainly to demonstrate the function– 13 NIST piexels obtained in pre-flight calibration
DAC (threshold) and pulse height (gain)EC2 s-curves, DAC250, DACtable (260,230,250,220)
DAC table
• Based on PDM measurement -- high statistic s-curve (25 packet, step 1, DAC 0-600) in LISA vacuum vessel at APC
• Many EC-unit have too low gain with HV950V• Remain DAC250 for such EC-units

Gain Table
36 x 64 ascii input file:(ASIC0,Ch0) (ASIC0,ch8) (ASIC0,ch16) … (ASIC0,ch63) (ASIC0,ch1) (ASIC0,ch9)….(ASIC1,Ch0) (ASIC1,ch8) (ASIC1,ch16) …….…
(ASIC0,Ch0) (ASIC7,ch0) (ASIC0,ch16) ….(ASIC0,Ch8) …….…
Ok, too complicated for now, we will make summary/techinical document near future….
After long fight since April, we made it work on July 1st 2014

Summary
• Analysis of absolute efficiency with gain table configuration is ongoing in the same method as other two conditions (no gain table, with/without DAC table)
• Further calibration will be done after PDM returning to Paris (in November?)
• When it’s ready, would be implemented in the table for the analysis with other parameters
