  6. PXL Cost and Schedule – overview – walkthrough at high level 1.2.2.3 Phase-2 Sensor We currently estimate to have enough wafers for a 3 sector prototype detector. If we wish to make more it takes just over 1 wafer / sector. HFT TC 10/14/2010 - LG

  7. PXL Cost and Schedule – overview – walkthrough at high level 1.2.2.4 PXL Sensor Note that task 158 (1.2.2.4.3.1 Respin sensor design 3) is a contingency item and that the duration is schedule contingency. We need a good way to integrate this. HFT TC 10/14/2010 - LG

  8. PXL Cost and Schedule – overview – walkthrough at high level 1.2.2.5 Ladder Cable We have made progress on this item, as indicated in the schedule. HFT TC 10/14/2010 - LG

  9. PXL Cost and Schedule – overview – walkthrough at high level 1.2.2.6 Phase-2 Ladder Assembly Note that sector fabrication is a mechanical WBS item – put as a placeholder to tie to mechanical schedule. HFT TC 10/14/2010 - LG

  10. PXL Cost and Schedule – overview – walkthrough at high level 1.2.2.7 Read-out Electronics HFT TC 10/14/2010 - LG

  11. PXL Cost and Schedule – overview – walkthrough at high level 1.2.2.7 Read-out Electronics - continued We have made progress on this item, as indicated in the schedule. HFT TC 10/14/2010 - LG

  12. PXL Cost and Schedule – overview – walkthrough at high level 1.2.2.8 PXL Sensor Ladder Production This starts based on sensor delivery. There is a 3 month schedule contingency left in the schedule as part of a third redesign for the sensor. This task can start 3 months earlier. Note – no installation costs have been added. Is this a BNL task? HFT TC 10/14/2010 - LG

  13. PXL Risk and Contingency Note – the rolled up values for % contingency in the project document seem to be off. What is shown is cont$/basecost$. HFT TC 10/14/2010 - LG

  14. PXL Risk and Contingency • Risk and Contingency items for incorporation into existing cost and schedule. • Schedule risk for 3rd iteration of PXL sensor design. This is already incorporated as a task with a 60 day duration. • If a re-design of the memories in the sensor is required for latch-up tolerance, it will take ~6 months. This is not currently fully in the schedule, I assume currently one redesign (plus above) with a duration of 20 weeks. • Cost risk – many of our procurements are sourced from Europe. Currency fluctuations are a risk. This needs to be explicitly addressed. • Schedule risk associated with meeting a cd-2/3 approval date is not yet explicitly addressed. HFT TC 10/14/2010 - LG

  15. PXL Plans and Activities • Current Milestones – • Q2FY11 - PXL Final Sensor Prototype 1 Receive • Q2FY12 - PXL Final Sensor Prototype 2 Receive • Q3FY12 - Install Prototype PH-2 • Q4FY12 - PXL Final Sensor Receive • Q4FY13 - Install PXL Detector • Reviews – • 12/2010 Sensor design review – external • Prior to all production efforts – internal HFT TC 10/14/2010 - LG

  16. Technical Progress We have made significant progress on the PXL detector this month. We had an in-person meeting with Rui de Olivera (head of the CERN Printed Circuit Board (PCB) shop). The CERN PCB shops appear to be fully capable of fabricating an aluminum conductor flex cable that would meet the requirements of the PXL readout cable as currently envisioned. A proof of principle is shown below in the form of cable developed for the ALICE pixel detector. Figure 1 Aluminum conductor flex cable developed for the ALICE PXL detector. This cable is four layers with micro-vias and a 50 um feature size. The top side of the cable is gold plated to allow for wire-bonding and soldering. The lower cable in the picture shows one of the inner layers in aluminum conductor. The timescale for delivery of boards can be negotiated but is similar to standard industry timescales. To produce the 200-300 cables that we need would require about 3-4 months. It would be better to work out a delivery schedule that allows for slower production if it can be arranged with the PXL schedule. The cost for the ALICE cables (50 um trace and space and microvias) was 170 SF per cable. This is a much more complex cable than the STAR PXL cable. He estimates that, based on my description, the cost would be about half, or 85 SF per cable. We can pay him just as we would any vendor. He will give a written quotation and can invoice LBNL. Rui recommends gold as a finish for wire bonding and component attachment (soldering or conductive adhesive). This would consist of 5-6 um of nickel followed by 0.1um of gold. They have not had good luck trying to get bond wires to stick to the amorphous aluminum that is the product of vacuum deposition. Since the CERN PCB shop also makes standard PCBs, we will do fabrication for the next 3 phases of ladder cable development there. This will serve as a way to familiarize the CERN shops with our designs, gain their advice and work out any communication or procurement problems before the aluminum conductor cable production fabrication. We now have a well defined path to the lower radiation length PXL detector as well as a more reasonable cost estimate for the cable fabrication. HFT TC 10/14/2010 - LG

  17. Technical Progress Meetings were held with IPHC in Strasbourg with Marc Winter, Christine Hu and other members of the PXL sensor design team. The main focus was to feed back information gained from the testing that we have done on sensors in a ladder configuration. These tests have resulted in us requesting several small changes to the final PXL sensor design. These include converting the sensor “START” signal from a single-ended to a differential LVDS signal, removing the requirement of bonding to the “RSTB” bonding pad, and the implementation on the “SPEAK” signal over LVDS or defined in a fixed state by using an internal “pull-up” resistor. IPHC has agreed to these modifications and will implement them in the initial design for the PXL sensor. The net result of these changes will be a full differential sensor interface for running conditions, one less trace in the bonding area of the sensors on the cable, and fewer bonding wires.

  18. Technical Progress In addition we have made progress in the probe testing, ordering a new probe testing card and in the planning for a set of latch-up measurements to be done at the LBNL 88” cyclotron in early November. We plan to test new MAPS prototypes and all PXL detector electronics components, which are planned to be located in high and moderate radiation areas in STAR. MAPS prototypes to be tested for latch up and SEU cross-sections are Mimosa 26 and a dedicated chip for latch up tests designed at IPHC. The LU test chip is composed of shift-registers that are built with digital cells with different spacing between NMOS and PMOS transistors. The latch up test results will help to assess the need for designing new, latch up resistant digital cells for use in sensors for the PXL detector. As soon as the full testing setup is assembled, which is expected to happen in the second week of October, we intend to be on-call and ready to fill in empty time slots that may appear due to cancellations or earlier terminations of user runs at the 88” cyclotron. In this scenario, there is a possibility that latch up (and SEU) test results would be available before the end of October. A more likely outcome, however, is that we will use free beam slots in the 88” cyclotron in early November.
