  23. Link synchronisation sequence • Initiated upon • reset from pin (Sequence of 65536 synch words) • reset_cmd command (Sequence of 65536 synch words) • send_k_sync_requ command (as long as the command is active) • Each synchronisation word consists of: • 6*10 bit characters are sent. • Each 6* 10 bit character is 5* K28.5 symbols followed by one K27.7. A. Kluge

  24. Data transmission • Idle command • If no data is transmitted or no frame word is transmitted • the idle command is sent over the link. • It is identical to the link synchronisation word and consists of 5 K28.5 symbols followed by one K27.7 A. Kluge

  25. Data transmission: frame word • Every time coarse counter rolls over after 2048 clk_dll cycles a frame word is sent at the next available word slot. • clk_dll frequency where the coarse counter and the frame counter is advanced can in principle be different from the clk_sync frequency. • The time intervall between two frames depends mainly on clk_dll. However, once a frame request is initiated in the clk_dll domain, this request is ported into the clk_sync domain and is executed at the next word transmission cycle which has a period of 6 clk_sync cycles. • Thus in nominal conditions (clk_sync & clk_dll = 320 MHz) the frame is sent out in average each (1/320 MHz * 2048 =) 6.4 µs. However as 2048 cycles cannot be divided 6 (number of 8b10b words in each data word) the number of word transmission cycles between two frame words toggles between 341 and 342 (2 * 341 and 1 *342 or 2 * 6.39375 µs and 6.4125 µs). • The frame word is defined as follows: • word_frame0(27 downto 0) <= frame_counter; • word_frame0(36 downto 28) <= hit_counter; • word_frame0(42 downto 37) <= qchip_collision_count; • word_frame0(46 downto 43) <= “0000” not used; • word_frame0(47) <= '1'; --format bit A. Kluge

  26. Data transmission: frame word • --(47) status bit 1 bit • --(46..43) not used = ‘0‘ 4 bit • --(42..37) # of collisions in previous frame 6 bits • 2**6=64, 3.3 MHz*10*6.4us=211hits --> count to 64 allows 1/3 of hits to collide • --(36..28) # of hits in previous frame 9 bits • hits per qchip and frame= 130 Mhits/s/4*6.4us=208-> • max hits in frame: worst case: clk_dll = 240 MHz clk_sync = 320MHz clk serial 3200 MHz-> number of -> 2048 / 240 MHz = 8.53 us frame length -> transmission cycles in one frame : 8.53 us *(3200MHz / 60)= 455 -> 9 bit • --(27..0) framecounter 28 bit • 2**28*6.4us=1718s A. Kluge

  27. Data transmission: data word • The data word is sent whenever a hit is available and no word with higher priority needs to be sent. • The data word is defined as follows: • (47) Status/data selector 1 bit • (46..40) Address 7 bit (90 pixel groups) • (39..35) Address-hit arbiter 5 bit • (34..30) Address pileup 5 bit • (29) Leading coarse time selector 1 bit • (28..17) Leading coarse time 12 bit • 1bit rollover indicator+2048(11bit)*3.125 ns=6.4 µs • (16..12) Leading fine time 5 bit 98 ps -> 3.125 ns • (11) Trailing coarse time selector 1 bit • (10..5) Trailing coarse time 6 bit 64*3.125 ns = 200 ns • (4..0) Trailing fine time 5 bit 98 ps -> 3.125 ns A. Kluge

  28. Data type • The word transmission priority is defined as follows: • send_k_sync_slot_requ (user request) • send_testpattern_requ (user request) • send_k_word_request (user request) • send_serial_time_requ (user request) • send_frame_requ • send_data_requ A. Kluge

  29. Configuration register • Operation modes and Configuration register • --configuration register • send_k_sync_requ <= configuration_data_int_in(0); default = ‘0’ • send_k_word_requ <= configuration_data_int_in(1); default = ‘0’ • k_word_type <= configuration_data_int_in(5 downto 2); default = “0000” • enable_serial_time_int <= configuration_data_int_in(6); default = ‘0’ • enable_test_pattern_int <= configuration_data_int_in(7); default = ‘0’ • new_data_testpattern <= configuration_data_int_in(8); default = ‘0’ • --> new_data_testpattern acts as write command for the data_testpattern fifo, • --> each 01 transition is used as write cmd A. Kluge

  30. Configuration register (2) • data_testpattern <= configuration_data_int_in(62 downto 9); default = “00..00” • --> Data_testpattern is composed of two words: • --> word_test_pattern_int <= data_testpattern (47 downto 0); • --> are 6 times 8 bit characters composing the 48 qchip_word, • --> K_word is a 6 bit word indicating whether the 6 characters are to be treated as data or k character. • --> k_word_test_pattern <= data_testpattern (53 downto 48); • --54 bit: data_testpattern -> write data into cell 54 of data_testpattern • --> subsequent writing moves write pointer of FIFO so that all 8 FIFO cells can be written • --> when test pattern is enabled, all 8 FIFO cells are read subsequently and pushed into • --> the data stream, thus the data stream consists of a multiple of 8 data words. A. Kluge

  31. TDC serial read-out • The 32 bit to 5 bit encoder, group and column FIFOs in the TDCs are not used. • Instead the two 32 bit fine registers and the 52 bit coarse register of one TDC channel are chained together. • In each quarter chip there are 90 TDC channels and thus 90 serial TDC chains. Each of these chains indicates a new data set by activating its serial_holding bit. • Serial chains are multiplexed into serial & parallel read-out A. Kluge
