CSC Phase I Upgrade Electronics CSC Phase I Upgrade Electronics

• ME4/2 upgrade: 72 new large chambers• for high-luminosity triggering in 1.1-1.8

• Flash ADC board for cathode digitization• ME1/1 to handle high rates • ME1/1 to restore trigger and improve reconstruction for 2.1-2.4

• Upgrade ME1/1 associated TMB and DMB boards• ALCT mezz. upgrade NOT currently part of this plan

• Triggering with & without the ME4/2 upgrade:• The high-luminosity Level 1 trigger threshold is reduced

from 48 18 GeV/c

Target Rate 5 kHz

Simulation result (May ’09)(Vadim Khotilovich, Alexei Safonov)

• Efficiency gaps for good quality TF tracks disappear with addition of ME4/2

• ME4/2 will be included by default in 31X

• Back-porting to 22X took a considerable amount of effort– Thanks to the experts:

Rick Wilkinson, Tim Cox, Oana Boeriu and Slava Valuev!

“Digital CFEB” cathode board“Digital CFEB” cathode board

• CSC principle: digitize cathode charges to ~1%, interpolate for fine position

• Current CFEB: the ADC is multiplexed 16:1• Requires analog charge storage ASIC (SCA)

• Serial digitization after L1A

• Digital CFEB uses Flash ADCs:• Continuous and deadtimeless digitization

ME1/1 Restoration of 2.1-2.4ME1/1 Restoration of 2.1-2.4• High- section of ME1/1

• Cathode strips are currently ganged 3:1

• Plan:• Install DCFEB boards on ME1/1• Move existing CFEBs from ME1/1 to ME4/2• Takes ~2.5 months per endcap• 72 new TMB and DMB boards needed to

accommodate additional inputs, optolinks

Discussion items for today - IDiscussion items for today - I• DCFEB

• Buckeye-FADC voltage levels – is there a solution? • DCFEB optical links - what are they? What protocol

do they need on the other end (new DMBs and TMBs)? Are they synchronous (for trigger)?

• Any other news on DCFEB? • Plan is to produce the prototype in 2010 some time -

when? • Radiation test ideas?• How crazy to accelerate to 2011 installation (LHC-off

year)?

• ME1/1 DMBs: • What are the plans for prototyping?• Manpower?

Discussion items for today - IIDiscussion items for today - II

• ME1/1 TMBs: • How to design and build them most effectively?

• New ME1/1 TMBs: what great new FPGA features are out there that we could make use of?

• ALCT mezzanine upgrade:• left out of the Phase 1 plans so far, but…

• NB Easy replacement when ME1/1 CFEBs replaced.

• Could a cheap FPGA upgrade be found?

• Plug for asynchronous trigger at this point?

CMS Forward Muon Discussion Jay Hauser 07 Oct 2009 11/11

Discussion items for today - IIIDiscussion items for today - III

• Preparation for Phase 2: • What will replacement for TTC system mean for

peripheral crates? • We need to make sure new DMBs and TMBs for

ME1/1 are going to be fully compatible.

• Peripheral crate changes?• Do we need to change the meaning of backplane

signals to deal with "independant" inner and outer sections of ME1/1?

• Do we want TMB to send more than 2 LCTs?• What needs to be done so that MPC sends all muons

(no data funnel)?

• What else should we be discussing?
