This document outlines the design and testing of various components for photon detection systems in high-energy physics experiments. Key elements include the integration of Forward and Barrel calorimeters, providing accurate energy summation for L1 trigger tagging, and the use of advanced timing and signal processing techniques with high-speed FADC chips. Emphasis is placed on dynamic range, timing resolution under 400 ps, and robotic assembly of Xilinx components. The document also discusses the potential for Ethernet connectivity and mixed VHDL design for enhanced signal handling.
