• Updates
  • VMM
    • Met with Gianluigi De Geronimo, getting the U Arizona design which is closer to GEM, he was concerned of pick up of DC DC converter by VMM, it seems we expect 100 k to 20 k electrons so we should have
    • discussion of Ed for FPGA to ASIC conversion : SMU people might be able to produce this ASIC.
    • license Vivado running on Ed computer,can continue development
    • Jeff still working on layout, will look at AZ design for filtering and shielding of DC supply, connector with low resistance and inductance
  • APV25
    • Optical to VXS 32 boards ordered
    • enable VME320 on SSP readout
    • show can reach 5 KHz
      **UMass test stand : FADC issue , maximum word loaded is wrong, now decoder works. VTP header files missing which need to be added.
