  2. BEA description of application • The BEA cards are part of the Beam Energy Tracking System BETS. • They are used to measure the currents of the main bending magnets, the septa MSD, the quadrupoles Q4R and the charging voltages of kicker and dilution generators MKD and MKB. • A BEA card has two signal inputs 0 to 10V. • There are two version of the card. A single height one BEA-3U and a double height one BEA-6U. Both cards are functionally identical. The only difference is that the BEA-6U card has a 1300nm single mode fibre optic output which makes it suitable for long distance signal transmission. • All cards have a 820nm multimode fibre optic output for short distance transmission. LBDS BEA card

  3. BEA input signals • The bending magnet current is measured with DCCTs which provide a full scale output voltage of 10V for a current of 13kA. The BEA-6U card measures the DCCT output voltage. • During normal operation the current ramps up from 739A at 450GeV to 11500A at 7TeV. The max. di/dt is 10A/s. • The BEA input voltage is 0.57V at 450GeV and 8.85V at 7TeV. • The design goal for the BEA cards is that the signals within the range of operation are measured with an error less than 0.1%. • Accuracy is critical for low input signals. The input of 0.57V at 450GeV is resolved with 3700LSB. • One LSB is 154µV. • The error must be less than 3.7LSB or 570µV. LBDS BEA card

  4. BEA input signals • The BEA-3U cards measure the charging voltages of the MKD and MKB generators. The input voltage range during operation is approximately the same as for the BEA-6U cards. • The max. dV/dt of the input voltage is 7.7mV/s. • For accurate tracking of the signals during ramping up the difference between two consecutive samples must be smaller than max. tolerated relative error. • The resulting upper limit for the sampling period is570µV / 7.7mV/s = 74ms. • The actual sample period is 1.024ms. This allows some redundancy and ensures good coherence between signals from difference parts of the beam dumping system. LBDS BEA card

  6. BEA operation • The ADC makes one sample every 16µs. • In one sub-cycle it samples the 4 signals Ch1, Ch2, Full-Scale-Ref. and Zero-Ref. • Sub-cycle duration is 64µs. Sampling frequency for every signal is fs = 15625Hz. • In one full-cycle 16 sub-cycles are performed and the average value of each of the 4 signals is calculated. • Averaging over 16 samples improves resolution by 2 bits. When subtracting ADC noise of 1 bit still 1 bit of extra resolution is gained. The result are 17 bits of resolution. • The complete measurement cycle has a duration of 16µs × 4 × 16 = 1024µs. The effective sample rate for each signal is therefore fse = 1/1024µs = 976.5625Hz. • The results of the full cycle are transmitted over the serial output. LBDS BEA card

  7. BEA input amplifier and filter Amplifier accuracy • DC offset <100µV • Gain error < 2·10-4 Anti aliasing input filter • 3rd order Bessel filter • 3dB bandwidth 240Hz • Attenuation at fs/2 7812.5Hz is -78dB • Phase delay is 1ms • Settling time to 0.1% for input step is 5ms LBDS BEA card

  8. BEA ADC • The BEA cards use a LTC1605A analogue do digital converter from Linear Technology. • Alternatives are AD976BR from Analog Devices and ADS7805UB from Texas Instruments. • Conversion principle is successive approximation. • Input voltage range is -10 to +10V. • Maximum sampling frequency is 100kHz. Actual sampling frequency is 62.5kHz. • Resolution is 16bit • Integral linearity error <2LSB • The “A” type has no missing codes for 16bits. • The RMS output noise is 1LSB. • Data output port is 16bit parallel. LBDS BEA card

  9. BEA ADC adjustment Adjustment of ADC • ADC input voltage range is adjusted to be from -10.1V to +10.1V. • The buffer has a gain of 2. • Even with out any adjustment the buffer output voltage is always within the ADC input range. • Zero and full-scale reference are continuously measured. Any drift of ADC and buffer is automatically corrected. LBDS BEA card

  10. BEA ADC adjustment Advantages • Total accuracy only depends on voltage reference. • Offset and gain errors of buffer and ADC are corrected. Disadvantages • Approximately 1% of ADC input range is not used. • Effective sampling rate for signals is reduced because zero and full-scale reference have to be measured as well. Voltage Reference • Vref = 10.000V±1mV • Long term stability typically 30ppm LBDS BEA card

  11. BEA control logic Control logic • Xilinx Spartan 3 FPGA • Clock frequency is 40MHz • Controls ADC and multiplexer. • Performs averaging of samples • Generates serial output. • Handles status signals from two digital inputs and power supplies monitoring. LBDS BEA card

  14. BEA-6U FO power budget Power at receivercan be from-4.1dBm = 389µW to-15.3dBm = 29.5µW. Typically it will be -9.7dBm = 107µW. LBDS BEA card

  15. BEA-6U FO power budget • Transmitter launch power 1mW=0dBm ±1dBm • Temperature variation of launch power ±2dB • Power degradation due to aging -3dB • Coupling into fibre -0.5dB • Connector losses -0.2dB to -0.4dB per connector. With 4 connectors the losses are -0.8dB to -1.6dB • Fibre losses -0.2dB/km to -0.3dB/km.For 10km the losses are -2dB to -3dB • Additional losses. This takes into account the additional devices in the transmission path. In this case it is the splitter 50:50 with attenuation of -3.3dB to -3.7dB. • Receiver coupling -0.5dB LBDS BEA card
