PHOTON (~50 USD) • Verypoor documentation • Alreadyolddevices (first order in 2003) • No information about median life • Webuiltourownaging test (23 devices) • OCP (>300 USD) • Similar package • Documentation available • Median life estimated to more than 88 years • Weadded 2 OCP modules to the batch of Photons for referenceduring the aging test S.

S. Baron TTCex lasers aging TESTS
S. Baron Setup: TTCex lasers aging tests Power supply ((Agilent) Thermal chamber (Ambient 70degC, case temperature 85%) Power cables Test started on October 1st Optical patch cords ST/PC-FC/PC TTCtx (23PHOTON, 2OCP) Analog receiver Analog receiver Optical power channels Current and temperature channels Summer Student: Laura Maria Comella Agilent 34970A Switch unit Labview GPIB Labview remote control Agilent 34970 Switch Unit As the lasers are in a butterfly package (including an ECL laser driver) we could not study the evolution of the light power at a constant drive current. Thus, we monitor both L and I at a constant V and T.

2 months of monitoring (1464 hours) • No loss of a single laser • No drop of current/power more than 2% (and the drop was during the 2 first weeks) • If the first laser dies at 2000 hours, the Arrhenius equation will give a Median Life of 20 years (a bit short) • If it dies at 3000 hours or later, the Median Life will be > 40 years. • We will keep running the system during Xmas break to reach 3-4 months (3000 hours) • If ok, safe to keep on using PHOTON lasers for the next 10 years • Still 140 Photon lasers as spares (10% spares) • 30 OCP lasers • OCP shall be used for newer designs • Or even SFP when possible (see Ioannis presentation) S. Baron TTCex lasers aging tests - CONCULSIONS
Complicated to produce and test • PCBsdegradeveryquickly and can’tbestored in the cupboardwaiting for the next batch • Averagerequests of about 30 boards per year • Normal production yield: 95% • With a 2 years-old PCB: 85% • With a 4 years-old PCB: 60% (!) • Wewouldneed to produce new PCBseveryyear • Tests are made via the old IC tester • Veryfast, but needs to be set up • No maintenance contractanymorewiththis tester • TRR are obsolete (beingreplaced, seenextslide) , crystals are starting to lack S. Baron TTCrq
Next production of TTCrq • Could still be envisaged for stock consolidation using experiments components • We have several 100s of TTCrq boards which did not pass the test. We are working together with the workshop to find a procedure to repare them. • Should not be proposed to new experiments. Solution: TTCrq ref design or TTC-FMC (see below) S. Baron TTCrq

S. Baron CORDE TTCex MKII TTC-FMC TTC new designs
Goal: • Allow ultra fine delayadjustment of clocks and orbitsafter the RF2TTC to compensate phase shift due to temperature changes on the underground fibres • ATLAS launchedthisstudy • One input per signal (3 Orbits, 4 BCs) • 2 delayed outputs (1 ECL, 1 NIM to mimic the RF2TTC outputs) • 10ps resolution • Design • Dominique Gigi • Based on the RF2TTC design • Using the MC10EP195 • 10 bits programmable ECL delay chip (0-10ns, steps of 10ps) • VME interface • Made to match the RF2TTC outputs • Status • Protoypejustdelivered and beingtestedtogetherwith the RF2TTC board S. Baron cordE
Goal: new up-to-date version of the TTCex • NA62 needed 21 new boards • New PLL to replace obsolete VCXO • Standalonefrequencycompliantwith QPLL locking range • Ability to turnon-offeach laser individually and monitor theirstatus • Exactly the samespecifications as the TTCex MKI • Design • StephaneDetraz • Based on CDCE62005 (PLL withdeterministicclock phase) • Status • Proto and preprodfullyvalidated • Production going on. Boardsexpected in January. • ECL components are stilldifficult to purchase S. Baron TTCex MKII
Goal • TTCrqisgetting more and more complicated to produce • A reference design couldbeveryuseful for new designs • Weneed a TTC-FMC board for the GLIB • Whichflavor do wechoose? • A TTCrq-likeboard, beingusedalso as a reference design for new needs of TTCrq? • A TTClightreceiver, very basic?

Ideas: • Weak points both in ATLAS and CMS in the TTC chain • But not the same for both of them • Be prepared in case of an emergency • Integrateboth local trigger module and TTC modules in one single module to reduceconnectivity issues • Propose a daughterboard for I/Os • Common VME interface, but separatefirmwares • Questions: • Mechanicalfeasibility? • Currentlyevaluating the I/Os requiredboth for ATLAS and CMS • Study to be made on triggeringlowlatency in an FPGA to fit ATLAS requirements • Get feedback fromboth ATLAS and CMS on the need of such a board S. Baron A COMMON LTTC ATLAS-CMS?
S. Baron PON investigations – follow up Bi-directional TTC – components & power budget study TTC-Pon compatibility (ioannis)
2011 plans • Fully validate the Photons for the next 10 years • Identify a replacement for the TRR pin diode receiver • Release the latest TTC designs • Corde, TTCexMKII, TTC-FMC and TTCrq ref design • Study feasibility & interest of the ATLAS-CMS LTTC board • Study a PON FMC for GLIB – may be compatible with the TTC system?
