  2. Defined in the “DG White Paper” “Work Package 3-1” Objective: Development of an high speed bidirectional radiation hard optical link Deliverable: Tested and qualified radiation hard optical link Duration: 4 years (2008 – 2011) Radiation Hard Optical Link: Versatile link project: Opto-electronics Radiation hardness Functionality testing Packaging GBT project: ASIC design Verification Functionality testing Packaging On-Detector Custom Electronics & Packaging Radiation Hard Off-Detector Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) Custom Protocol Radiation Hard Optical Link Architecture Paulo.Moreira@cern.ch

  3. Bandwidth: User: 3.36 Gb/s Line: 4.8 Gb/s Dedicated channels: Link control: 80 Mb/s Data/Slow control channel: 80 Mb/s DC balance: Scrambler No bandwidth penalty Forward Error Correction and Frame Synchronization Efficiency: 73% To be compared with 8B/10B: 80% no error correction capability Link is bidirectional Link is symmetrical: Down-link highly flexible: Can convey unique data to each frontend device that it is serving “Soft” architecture managed at the control room level Other schemes would require dedicated topologies that will be difficult to accommodate on a generic ASIC like the GBTX Line code and frame structure compatible with modern FPGAs GBT Link Bandwidth Paulo.Moreira@cern.ch

  12. E-Links: e-port No protocol added on data stream No overhead No frame/word alignment Fixed latency Two protocols are available as possible additional MAC wrappers: 7B/8B Balanced, fixed latency, suitable for trigger commands links RTL code under development High-Level Data Link Control (HDLC) Packet oriented data, high bandwidth efficiency (~96%) Non-fixed latency, suitable for slow control and data links RTL code ready To be specified Lanes support The FE interfaces with the GBTX through ane-port The e-port handles: • The physical interface; • The multiple data rates; • The lanes (for bandwidth > 320 Mb/s) • Line coding: • Clock recovery (if required) • AC coupling (if required) The user application does not have to care about the frame formats in full detail: • It s done through a well defined interface!
