  1. GlueX Collaboration Meeting 12GeV Trigger Electronics 10 May 2010 R. Chris Cuevas • FY10 Project Goals • Update from January 2010 Collaboration Meeting • Hardware Design Status Updates • Summary NIM

  2. FY10 Project Goals • Baseline Improvement Activities (BIA) have been established for FY10 • FADC250 Rev- BIAFAD • Revision includes 12bit ADC and consolidation of FPGA which will reduce part count significantly. Use latest Xilinx technology and include new requirements. • F1-TDC Rev-2 BIAF1T • Revision includes 48 channel ‘mode’ for FDC, add VXS signaling, upgrade FPGA, add event RAM, and pulse output feature. • SSP (Prototype) - BIATRG • Complete schematic, board layout, assembly, and firmware for at least two units. • GTP (Prototype) - BIATRG • Complete schematic, board layout, assembly and firmware for a single unit. • Complete VXS crate specification and procurement for ALL VXS crates needed for 12GeV applications. Allows for quantity price reduction and ‘phased’ delivery during installation period. 2

  11. William Gu TID • Trigger/Clock/Sync distribution/Busy • Two sided, 12-layer VME board (6Ux160mm) • PCB layout finished • PCB fabrication after independent review/check • FPGA firmware development underway • Board testing in the summer. (Virginia summer is earlier) • Module has been designed to function as Trigger Interface or Trigger Distribution • Module can be configured to function as a Trigger Supervisor (Trigger signals received on front panel I/O connector) • VXS payload board format • Provides communication from VME to SD & CTP modules via I^2C serial links. 11

  14. Global Trigger Processor: (GTP) • Global Trigger Processor (GTP) receives all subsystem Level 1 data streams • Trigger decisions made in GTP and distributed to all crates via the Trigger Distribution (TD) modules in the Trigger Supervisor Crate SSP SSP Up to 8x L1 Crates per SSP FCAL (Energy) SSP SSP GTP BCAL (Energy) SSP GTP TOF (Hits) SSP Start Counter (Hits) SSP Trigger Decisions to Trigger Distribution Crate Tagger (Hits) Each Connection: 8Gbps SSP->GTP (32bits every 4ns) from CTPs up to 8 SSP Modules (64 L1 Front-End Crates) 14

  15. Global Trigger Crate • VXS Pair Map • SubSystem Processors are Payload board format and will communicate with two GTP • Note TI mapping is identical to Front-End Crate • GTP must also provide SD fanout functions for SSP payload modules 15

  16. GTP Specification Update presented at Online Working Group Meeting 16

  17. Virtex 5 devices available now that have high GigaBit transceiver counts capable of managing the data from up to 8 Sub-System Processors • GTP logic will effectively have all trigger data from up to 64 Level 1 crates in one FPGA. 17

  18. Quick view of proposed component layout using Virtex 5 FPGA • Routing will be dense for Gigabit links from each SSP • ( 4 links * 8 SSP ) • GTP must manage the SD functions, but this should be feasible • Power and cost are reduced from original proposal 18

  19. Ben Raydo Discriminator Status (Not truly trigger system hardware, but very nice new development) • 16 Channel dual-threshold discriminator prototypes are in house: • 2 units for Hall D • 5 units for Hall B • Prototype modules will be released in the next week for halls to use. • Significantly cheaper than V895: • -cost < $2,000 • Provides several features not found on V895: • 32bit scalers on all channels at both thresholds • Calibrated pulse widths: from 8 to 40ns • Trimmed input offset (<2mV error) • Second 34pin output connector is fully programmable. • Able to perform logic based on all channels at both thresholds 19

  21. Schedules, work plans for FY11 - FY13 • FY10 design projects are at full resource pace! • FADC250  Production version at end of FY10 • F1TDC-V2 • SSP  Prototype by end of June 2010 • TI-TD  Prototype(s) by end of summer 2010 • 16 Channel Discriminator/Scaler(Hall B requirement) •  7 ‘production’ units under test now • VXS Crate Specification  At the RFI stage and accounts for each year allocated • GTP  Need new EE full time, but we will have to keep moving forward • Baseline Improvement Activities (BIA) review upcoming to review FY11 projects • Several of the board projects listed above will be available before FY11 begins • FY11 will be an intensive year of significant ‘system’ level testing to assure • that these boards are ready for final production quantity orders in FY12 21

  22. Summary (Almost identical to 28-Jan summary) • FY10 board design projects are on track and prototypes will be here soon!! • As always GREAT WORK on keeping these projects on schedule • Work activities exceed EE and E-Designer resources, but we push forward, • GTP design activities must be started soon independent of new EE hire status • 3nd annual 12GeV Trigger Workshop will be @CNU – 8 July 2010 • FINAL VXS pair mapping has been established so other groups (Hall A, Hall B) • are able to start their custom VXS payload modules. • (Super BigBite will use VXS payload modules for GEM tracker) • Weekly 12GeV Trigger meeting has produced good discussions and ideas • for implementation of system level test programs that will be essential for • commissioning the DAQ/Trigger/Readout system in the Hall. ( See Alex’s talk) • Looking forward, the FY11 – FY13 schedule appears to be reasonable, (labor $$ • included), but detailed work activities will need to be created to assure success. 22

  28. Synchronized Multi-Crate Readout • CTP #2 is also acting as an SSP (by summing the local crate + CTP#1 sum over fiber • A programmable threshold is set in CTP, which creates a trigger when the global sum (6 FADC boards => 96 channels) is over threshold. • Example test with a burst of 3 pulses into 16 channels across 2 crates/6 FADC modules A 2μs global sum window is recorded around the trigger to see how the trigger was formed: Example Raw Event Data for 1 FADC Channel: B. Raydo

  29. 2 Crate Energy Sum Testing Global Sum Capture (at “SSP”): Input Signal to 16 FADC250 Channels: Raw Mode Triggered Data (single channel shown only): • Threshold applied to global sum (96 digitized channels) produces 3 triggers. • Raw channel samples extracted from pipeline shown for 1 channel. • Runs at 250kHz in charge mode • Latency: 2.3µs(measured) + 660ns(GTP estimate) < 3µs B. Raydo

  30. Synchronized Multi-Crate Readout Rates • FADC event synchronization has been stable for several billion events @ ~150kHz trigger rate. • Have run up to 140kHz trigger rate in raw window mode, up to 170kHz in Pulse/Time mode. • Ed Jastrzembski has completed the 2eSST VME Interface on FADC allowing ~200MB/s readout Single Crate 12 signals distributed to four FADC250 18% Occupancy B.
