Design considerations Select components which can withstand the high voltage in the CW multiplier. Check dissipation of every component. Check distance on PCB between high voltage components. Determine on which side of the PCB which part of the circuit will be placed. Find a connector system which is sturdy enough. 28-01-2014 Amsterdam

PMT functionality tests. • Check if supply current is in range. • Check I2C communication. • Check DACHV output of PROMiS2. • Check switch output of COCO. • Check pulse width of switch output of COCO. • Check maximum frequency of COCO. • Check if HV is coming up. All inter dynode voltages are measured separately. • Check range of HVDAC output and HV output. (steps of 50V). • Check if HV diodes and capacitors don’t leak. • Check system with supply voltage variations from 3V – 3.6V. • Check pulse width output of PROMiS2 when charge is injected. Comparator DAC will be set to give the right pulse width. • Check analogue output of PROMiS2 when charge is injected. 21-05-2013 Amsterdam
