6 FEDv1 boards delivered to CERN
for Large Scale Assembly centres
(4 used in 25 nsec test beam June 2004)
5 FEDv1 boards kept in UK for Design Tests
FEDv1 Manufacture HistorySep 2003
5 FEDv1 boards under test. (PCB and Assembly done by separate small companies)
All boards working well. Only manufacturing minor faults.
Oct 2003
Further 6 FEDv1 made. (same manufacturers)
Major problems on all boards. Shorts under many BGAs.
Rework of BGAs attempted. After initial success on 2 boards failed on next 4.
Problem believed due to uncured solder resist ink leeching from vias of bare PCBs.
Diagnosis complicated by split manufacture and change from Ni/Gold to Immersion Tin metal finish.
Nov 2003 - Jan 2004
Identified candidate medium size companies suitable for 500 production boards.
Providing combined PCB and Assembly with guarantees.
Offering advanced Quality Controls, Auto Optical Inspection, X-ray (in house), BScan.
Mar 2004
Manufactured 6 FEDv1 with one of the identified companies.
Very professional production process. No BGA problems. All boards working well.
FEDv1 Design TestingHardware
Design verified @ 100 kHz L1.
S-LINK readout @ 80 MHz.
Analogue circuits characterised. Optical inputs using FED Opto-Tester board.
Switch to operate ADC in 1V pp mode (due to ADC bug). Minor mod on FED.
To match new OptoRx some FED FE component values will need tuning.
Interfaces to TTC and TCS verified.
FED power/temp requirements finalised. Standard LHC crates satisfactory.
Firmware
Baseline design working, used in 25 nsec Test Beams June 2004.
Some readout errors in Zero Suppression mode. Under investigation.
Software
FED is fully integrated in CMS Tracker DAQ framework.
Test bench Framework for essential Assembly Plant Testing nearly ready.
Firmware and FPGAs
Delay x 24 FE x 8
BE x 1
VME x 1
Delay FPGA: ADC Coarse and Fine Clock Skewing.
FE FPGA: Scope and Frame Finding modes.
BE FPGA: Event building, buffering and formatting.
VME FPGA: Controls and Slow Readout path.
Baseline of 4 FPGA Final Designs working...
34 Xilinx Virtex II FPGAsup to 2M equiv gates each
FEDv2 pre-Production BoardMinimal Hardware changes from FEDv1:
Power Block : General improvements.
QDR Memory : Replacement part (pin compatible) identified.
FE FPGA : Use larger 2M gate (pin compatible) part.
ADC : AD9218 Device bug. Reduce gain by half. Simple mod.
FPGA Configuration : VME Boot device reprogram via JTAG cable.
S-LINK & TCS Signals : New 6U VME Transition Card.
FE Analogue : Tune some component values for optimal matching to Optical Link
Status
First 2 boards received in August. Tests proceeding well.Boundary Scan passed. VME crate tests in progress
Plan to make a further 20 before end of 2004 for Full Crate tests.
S-LINK VME Transition Card Simple 6U board:
Provides interface between FED and Slink Transmitter
Provides access to FED Throttle signals
