  1. Tracker DAQ Update • DFPGA/AFPGA Update • VLSB Firmware Progress • Plans/Schedule Terry Hart, Tracker Phone Meeting, April 26, 2007

  2. DFPGA/AFPGA Update • Senerath, Bill, and I have clarified the protocol for data transfers on the bidirectional bus between the DFPGA and AFPGA. • We expect to have the firmware roughed out in about two weeks. • After that, we will concentrate on testing AFE IIt operation at different frequencies. Terry Hart, Tracker Phone Meeting, April 26, 2007

  3. VLSB Update • I’ve met with Bill Haynes and Neal Wilcer from FNAL Computing Division to clarify some questions we had about VLSB firmware and proposed modificatons. • Upcoming plans • Bill and Neal will work on fast clear of memory banks after spill is done. • We will work on getting block transfers to work on AFE IIt test stand. • After that, work on “squeezing out null words” will become main VLSB priority.
