Final Design Presentation of ER Bundles at INFN Milano Meeting
During the nSQP meeting on July 14, 2011, I presented the assumed "final design" of the ER bundles, noting key caveats. Transmission properties were not covered, and the complete system test involving all components is still pending. The design is regarded as final, contingent upon successful system test outcomes. Key aspects include mechanics for connectors, shielding options (tin copper and carbon), and assembly procedures. Progress includes connector board assembly and confirmation of materials for braids and shells. Future steps involve production and assembly after the holiday period.

ER Bundle “final” design D. Giugni / INFN Milano 2011-07-14 nSQP's meeting
Assumption • I am going to present what I would call “final design” of the ER bundles... with some caveats: • The transmission properties of the data line are not covered here. We cannot say that it is fully qualify. A “system” test with all the parts (E-board, ER Bundle, Optoboard) has not been done yet. • I assume hereafter that it is or, it will be, ok. Therefore the design is “final” if the system test will show good results. • If it is true, then the design is really final: • Wires, boards, connectors • Mechanics: connector shells, strain releases, assembly procedures • Shielding (*) and grounding. • (*) There are still two options for the shielding braids: tin copper and carbon. It does not affect the design nor the fabrication procedure 2011-07-14 nSQP's meeting

Connector Shell Sputtering • Sputtering seems to be ok. • Tested 2um Ti coating • Good adhesion • Next layer can be ~3um Cu or Ni Ni preferred (by me) Total coautingth. ~5um • Fast an almost inexpensive 2um Ti spattered Uncoated SLA shell 2011-07-14 nSQP's meeting
D-bundle production plan • Re-spin the Cable and D/B Connector board. Some already in hands. Need to load with connectors and capacitors • Re-spin the production of the new shells (both D&B type) • Spattering available. • All braids (NOMEX, KEVLAR, Cu and Carbon fiber) in hands • Silicon casting available at CERN and ready to go. Can assemble 14 D-ER Bundles with all the final parts... however we are in a vacation period. • 10 bundles with Ti Cu braid • 4 Bundles with CF braid. 2011-07-14 nSQP's meeting
