Hardware and Software Status Report on The Source Card Project - February 2007

DESCRIPTION

This report outlines the current hardware and software status of The Source Card Project at Imperial College London, led by Andrew Rose. February 2007 presented challenges, including issues with delivered cards, such as incorrect analogue regulators and damaged components. As of now, 36 cards have been received, with various testing results. On the software side, XDAQ card control is functioning well, although some issues with RCT readout and Transmitter Block RAM require resolution. Ongoing updates promise further progress in the coming weeks.
