  4. KM3NeT Artistic Impression • 6 Building Blocks (BBs) ~ 6 km3 • 1 BB = 115 Detection Units (DU) • 1 DU = 18 Digital Optical Modules ~ 700m ~100m ELECTRO-OPTICAL CABLE TO SHORE K. Manolopoulos

  5. KM3NeT- Where & When 200 People 40 Institutes 10 Countries • 2 BBs in each site ~2km3 • KM3NeT-France: Toulon (~ 2500m) • KM3NeT-Italy: Capo Passero(~ 3500m) • KM3NeT-Greece: Pylos(depth ~ 4500m) • Common hardware, data handling and operation control • Centrally managed • Nodes for marine science at each site K. Manolopoulos

  7. Digital Optical Module (DOM) • Receives power from external 400V/12V power supply. • Uses internal power supply board (DOM-PB) to generate 7 power rails at various voltages as required by its electronic modules, e.g. • Central logic (FPGA) board. • Photomultiplier (PMT) bases. • Optical communications. • Instrumentation boards inside the DOM, e.g. • Acoustic piezo sensor for the DOM positioning system. • Compasses and tiltmeters to monitor the orientation of PMTs. • Temperature and humidity sensors. • LED nanobeacons for timing calibration. K. Manolopoulos

  8. DOM Power Supply Board (DOM-PB) Design considerations • Multiple power rails derived from 12V input. • High power conversion efficiency desirable. • Power up sequencing requirements to adhere to (strictly sequential). • Strict form factor constraints imposed by DOM mechanical design. • Not easily accessible or serviceable inside the DOM. • Attached directly to DOM heat conductor to improve cooling. • DOM uses an internal mushroom-shaped aluminium heat conductor to improve heat flow to its environment (sea water). • Shielded against EMI and acoustic noise to other DOM modules. • Reliability – operating lifetime > 10 years. K. Manolopoulos

  9. Design options • Pre-production version, to be used only during DOM electronic systems development for power evaluation purposes, with capabilities for • Current and voltage sensing of all power rails. • I2C communication for data acquisition by • FPGA firmware. • PC software. • Dynamic power profiling tool for DOM electronic modules. • Reduced power efficiency due to: • Extra ICs (ADCs, buffers, …) • Current sensing resistors. • Production version. • Without the above capabilities, to increase power efficiency. K. Manolopoulos

  10. Implementation considerations • Use readily available off-the-shelf components (ICs). • Modular design for flexibility in implementing future changes in case of component obsolescense or procurement problems. • Low cost • Component costs • 2 power connectors, 1 mixed power/signal connector. • Input DC power filter, output ferrite (LC) filters. • Switching/linear regulator ICs, magnetics, other ICs • PCB costs • Use max 4 layers. • No blind or buried vias. K.MANOLOPOULOS.

  11. Power rail specifications with current (power) estimates • Step down: 12V → 1.0V 2.3A (FPGA board) 12V → 1.8V 0.9A 12V → 2.5V 0.9A 12V → 3.3V 0.7A (digital) 12V → 3.3V 0.3A (analog, PMT bases, low noise/ripple required) 12V → 5.0V 0.4A • Step up: 12V → 0V .. 30V 5mA (programmable via I2C) • Power sequencing: • Power-up: Low voltages precede higher voltages. • Power-down: Not specified. • Power-good output asserted when all step-down rails are good. • Separate power-good output for the PMT rail required. • Step-up rail: no need for power-good. Activated when 5.0V rail is good. K.MANOLOPOULOS.

  12. Implementation decisions • For efficiency, use switching regulators due to high step-down ratio. • For reduced noise/ripple and higher efficiency on the PMT rail: • Use linear regulator preceded by step-down 12V → 3.8V to reduce linear dropout. • Avoid using power sequencer IC: • Use the ENABLE input and POWER_GOOD outputs of switching regulators in a daisy-chain (i.e. domino-like) configuration, where each regulator is enabled by the power good output of the previous (lower) rail. K.MANOLOPOULOS.

  14. Implementation options for step-down switching regulators • Regulator IC with external magnetics. • Flexibility in selecting switching frequency and component values. • Longer development for tests & qualification of each switcher design. • Less flexibility in modifying the Power Board design. • Modular point-of load (POL) switching regulator. • Regulator IC with magnetics supplied as a single module. • Encapsulated modules (expensive, but EMC qualified). • Module on mini PCB (low cost). • Speeds up development. • Flexibility in upgrading and modifying the Power Board design. • Guaranteed electrical and EMC specifications. • Optimized PCB design by manufacturer, own GND plane. • Widely available by several manufacturers, low cost. • No flexibility in selecting switching frequency. K.MANOLOPOULOS.

  15. DOM Vout Settings K.MANOLOPOULOS.

  16. Power Board Overview K.MANOLOPOULOS.

  17. Conclusions • Power efficiency of pre-production version approx. 80%. • Estimated power efficiency of production version approx. 85%. • Further work • Use power profiling capability of pre-production version to provide precise figures on current consumption of all DOM electronic modules. • Optimise power efficiency by replacing POL modular converters with bespoke switching regulators with own magnetics to achieve at least 90% efficiency on each rail.
