• Updates VMM
  • Working on L0 mode - Hall B planning to use
  • Purchase for rad hard component for LHC : lpGBT and VTR+ and bPol 2.5 - for TDIS and SoLID - in queue for 14 months - letter of increase added because cost went up - increase quantity to have the SoLID ones - might be coming soon : lpGBT and bPol (2.5 -> 2.5 to 1.2) and bPol12 might come in a week - could make the radhard mezzanine - could use bPol for PRAD and SBS - can test and measure noise -
  • VTR+ later
  • interface from benchtop supply: design complete - still not ordered - need to be careful of spike at start - could ramp the supply
  • Hall B has untested VMM - wants to make a 4 chips prototype - one engineer will test the VMM - will use one eval board with socket to test chips
  • need to replace the desiccant for VMM
  • SALSA : 50 MHz FADC -
  • MPD - new version -
  • Pixel chamber GEM - different pixel size - ~ 100 k channels
  • check with Paolo, new MPD
  • APV25 220nm process - SAMPA 120 ns - SALSA 65 nm - check if line still exist
• Status orders
  • FADC ordered
  • VTP ordered
  • TI
  • SD
  • VXS - 24 ordered need 8 more
  • VETROC
• MRPC electronics
  • NALU ASOC and AARDVARC
  • picoTDC
  • SAMPIC
• TDIS
  • wirechamber - 1 ns
  • SAMPA close to 2 ns with fitting of pulse at 20 MHz
