Hybrid Front-end board
Prototype board
This is the prototype used in the
beam test.
The design of this board is
based:
• 4 “ToT Mezzanine” with 2 channels each
• This is the final card.
•2 Manual threshold control
• thr low
• thr high
• 2 Analog output SUM
• 16 LVDS output (8CHx2thr)
• Fits on mechanics VME6U.
ToT Mezzanine
This is the Time Over Threshold
Mezzanine card.
It has the section of:
• Clamping
• Amplification and Splitter
• 2 channels of Discrimination.

Analog sum output
• The Front End board is equipped with 32 analog channels
• One board is used for 1 LAYER.
• All outputs can not be housed in the board (there isn’t space on
the front panel)
Is possible carry out:
4Ch
4Ch
• 1 SUM with 4 analog signals
(One for each “BANANA”)
• 1 SUM with 4 BANANAs
(One for each half Layer)

sum 4 sum 4
•The final motherboard will contains:
• 8 SUM output with 4 channels.
• 2 SUM output with 16 channels.

Su
• All SUMs must be clamped, because the sum
of analog signal must not saturate the amplifier.
• All SUMs must be buffered and matched 50Ω.
Something like this…
• This is a shot of what we are
willing to have for the final
version.
• The small cards at the bottom are
“ToT Mezzanine”.
• The small cards at the top are
“SUM Mezzanine”.
• On the front panel fitted:
• LVDS output for TDC
• SUM output
• Slow control connection.
• On the rear panel fitted:
• Analog input
• Power connector.
Threshold circuit
• The threshold will be read and programmed
remotely. (CANOpen)
• With a dynamic range 0-500 mV
• With a resolution 12 bits
• With stability 2 LSB
• Will be implemented the automatic threshold scan
via slow control.
Front-end diagnostics
• For test the Front-end system, the board implements
a TEST PULSE, which may be:
• free-running (controlled by local CPU)
• or on external trigger
• The pulse can be:
• equal for all channels
• or a programmable pattern
• The pulse can be programmed in level and in width:
• 10-500 mV programmable amplitude
• 10-50 ns programmable width
• Stability level 1%.
DCS requirements FEE boards
• The structure of our slow control system
consists of 4 CAN line :
• 1 for Crate VME9U
• 1 for Tell62
• 1 for HV system
• 1 for 8 Front End board

CRATE LAV
In order to start the production of the final project
some information are still missing.
We are trying to understand the right information of:
• the power supply of the crates
• the voltages supply (analog and digital) for slot
• the maximum current for slot
• the backplane connector schema
Until we obtain these info we can not finalize the
design.

Wiener 6020 LHC crate
This is an example of a crate that has been taken into account,
but it has a deficit in current on the 12V;

This is another example of a crate, but it has not 12V;
• Both crates are not suitable for our purposes!

We don’t know the final consumption of TELL62 (Marco Sozzi will tell us the truth)
• For each LAV’s Crate we need 1 TELL62 slot (mechanical 2 slots)
and 19 VME 9U slots with only upper power connector.
• We request only mechanical slot 9U, and 3U for backplane and
power supply.
• We don’t need the transition modules.

Conclusion
• Beginning of final project waits results from the test beam
– Time resolution
– Charge resolution
– Interaction with TELL1 and final TDC
• Design of components for the final board done
– Mother board design after definition of power supply (crate)
– Need final output connection to TDC to be defined
• DCS requires 4 lines per stations
– Crate VME, TELL62, FEE board, HV
