Leo Greiner PIXEL Hardware meeting HFT PIXEL detector LVDS Data Path Testing
Leo Greiner PIXEL Hardware meeting Outline Review of RDO design. LVDS Data Path test design Status For more information, please see:
Leo Greiner PIXEL Hardware meeting Phase-1 Sensor characteristics 640 x 640 array – 30 micron pixels On-chip CDS and discriminators 4 LVDS outputs / sensor Rolling shutter readout – binary digital data per pixel 640 microsecond integration time 160 MHz LVDS RDO clock speed (this is configurable) The Ultimate sensor will have on chip zero-suppression and 1 output / sensor. The readout clock can be slower than the 160 MHz required for the Phase-1.
Leo Greiner PIXEL Hardware meeting RDO System Design – System Blocks This is a highly parallel system – a schematic representation is shown below.

Leo Greiner PIXEL Hardware meeting Testing Plan Bit Error Rate and Eye Pattern Plots for combinations of: 1.Different cable types from the Mass-termination board to the V5 interface board. 2.Different cable lengths from the Mass-termination board to the V5 interface board. 3.Range of clock RDO frequencies including pseudo random data and clock data. 4.Hardware configuration either straight path through Mass- termination board or through buffers.
Leo Greiner PIXEL Hardware meeting Status Virtex-5 Development Board – in hand and ready for testing. Ladder test board – Layout completed. Soliciting quotations for PCB fabrication. Mass-termination board – in Layout. V5 interface board – Schematic complete. Ready for layout. We anticipate being ready to begin testing in mid January.

Leo Greiner PIXEL Hardware meeting Detailed System Structure – RDO Functional Data Path – Phase 1
Leo Greiner PIXEL Hardware meeting Data Rates - Parameters Rates as per Jim Thomas, L = 3 x for Phase-1, L = 8 x for Ultimate. 2.5 hits / cluster. 1 kHz average event rate. 10 inner ladders, 30 outer ladders. Factor of 1.6 for event format overhead (can be lowered). No run length encoding R = 2.5R = us 640 us Hits / Sensor at L = 8 x Integration Time Radius
Leo Greiner PIXEL Hardware meeting Data Rates Ultimate => 49.7 MB / s raw addresses. => 79.5 MB / s data rate. Phase–1 => 59.6 MB / s raw addresses => 95.4 MB / s data rate. The dead-time is primarily limited by the number of externally allocated readout buffers!
