Test plan Debug the system (ITB, MTB, RDO, firmware, and software)

Compare probe test results with sensor performance on the ITB– Each chip tested individually

Individual characterization of sensor performance (one sensor running)

– Scan of discriminator thresholds– Analog 55Fe calibrations

Sensor characterization on ITB – individual sensor characterization when all sensors are correctly configured and running

Sensor characterization on ITB as a function of different bias conditions

– Additional resistance in power distribution– Different bias voltages

Data acquisition for all sensors at the same time

Setup status

Hardware is ready (ITB required minor patches)– E.g. missing MK_CLKD connection has been replaced with last column

maker from Sensor 1 (first in chain) available at Tst2Pad

Full hardware setup: ITB, MTB, RDO, long cables.

Firmware is ready for the initial set of tests– Tuning IODELAY for all signal paths– Readout of one sensor at a time (selected with a parameter set at the

acquisition time)

Software is ready (some tweaking as we go along)– Scripted procedures for data acquisition and data analysis

Present issues

JTAG programming for all sensors at once (BIAS_DAC, RDO, CTRL, LINEPAT …) is unreliable - it is necessary to repeat it

Programming of just a few sensors at once works well

We can program the whole chain with one JTAG sequence, as long as the BIAS_DAC is the last one in that sequence

Sync issue– One chip doesn’t synchronize to the

same clock as the rest

– Synchronizes well when power consumption on the ITB is reduced

Initial test results

Probe test results (not optimal settings)

vs.

ITB test - one sensor at a time, other sensors set up but waiting for CMOS CLK

vs.

ITB test - data acquisition for each sensor individually: other sensors are configured with 0 in DAC BIAS and CMOS CLK

– The exception is chip 0 which generates the sync marker - the configuration is: LVDSTX and LVDS set, other DAC biases are 0s.

– Power consumption @5.2 V ~ 1.6 A (measured at the power supply)

Summary

Full hardware setup– ITB, MTB, RDO, long cables

Hardware, firmware, software – already compatible with most of the test plan

Multidrop clock working

JTAG daisy chain working (with caveats)

Test results feed back to our probe test setup

There are issues to be addressed

ITB tests are beginning

Full test report will be available hopefully soon

Ladder power consumption

All chips programmed– VDD 0.65 A => chip start => 0.71 A– VDA 0.73 A => chip start => 1.07 A

Power for MTB & ITB (@ 5.2V)– After power ON => 1.36 A– After JTAG programming => 2.44 A– After chip start => 2.84 A
