Long Term Rod Testing in US Patrick Gartung University of California, Riverside
Rod Acceptance Testing • No electrical test done yet • To readout frames you need to attach/detach hybrid • Following example of TEC • Rod is powered and connected to FEC • I2C commands sent to optohybird to vary gain and bias • Laser output is checked on oscilloscope • Rod is unpacked and visually inspected for damage then placed in the assembly fixture
Module installation testing • Rod is powered and connected to DAQ • The rod is biased and noise and calibration measurements are made to determine if any bonds were broken (as indicated by low noise and calibration response). • Modules with broken bonds are replaced and the rod is retested. • For double sided rods test after inner 6 modules are installed then install outer 6 • Modules are installed in the rod
Long Term Testing • Rods are placed in test box, connected to the chiller, powered and connected to DAQ • Rods are biased and thermal cycled for several days • Periodic measurements are made with test software to determine any failures • Chiller is controlled by independent interlock system which can communicate with test software on DAQ system.
Single Rod Test Stand OEC (12 channels) DAQ PC with 2 FED CTRL adapter and cables Cold box with dry air chiller • Work done by Jim Lamb (UCSB student) • Readout 1 SS or DS rod • Prototype set up at UCSB • Currently using XROD to take pedestals • Will thermal cycle rod with chiller control High voltage (36 channels) Low voltage
Multi-rod test stand status • Prototype freezer moved from Rochester to Fermilab October 11. • Second freezer will be shipped to UCSB early December. • Designed and built an electronic circuit to command the coolant, vacuum and compressed air valves • Allows a low current signal to completely control flow of coolant and the application of compressed air and vacuum • Completed the automation of the procedure for loading and unloading of rods • Work done by Ricardo Eusebi (Rochester student) • Labview VI running on interlock PC will guide user • User selects “install rods” and PC sets freezer in proper condition • PC closes coolant valves and drains pipes • User is prompted to install rods and click “continue” • PC opens coolant valves and fills pipes • After long term test user will select “remove rods” and the reverse procedure will be followed.
Assembly diagnostic software • Currently using XROD • Quickly determine optohybrid gain and bias settings, FED timing and PLL timing • Perform quick noise measurements to check for opens
Long term test software • Lt is being extended to test modules on substructures • Working with Wim Beamont to define settings for rods • Will beta test on rod in the next few weeks • Chiller control system listens on TCP port for set temperature commands from Lt • Ability to read and record temperatures and currents for free • Scripting of temperature change, voltage change and various tests for free
Equipment needs • To complete two single rod test stands • Need 1 TSC, 2 OEC (2nd OEC on motherboard) • 2 OMUX crates with 4 mux cards each • (Optional) 4 electrometers • Short term for multi-rod test stands • 2 TSC, 2 FED, 2 FEC • 2 OMUX crates with 4 mux cards each • 4 OEC on 2 motherboards • 2 CERN low voltage power supplies
