Thomas introduces new Carleton HW design engineer Sammy

  • will work mostly on layout.
  • has started porting Eric's Caribou test-board layout into Altium. 
  • Pads Pro exists at Carleton. But not standard Pads. Would prefer Altium.

 

Eric:

  • progress on v2 schematics: updated test-board schematics with findings from testing, merged with BNL frontend test board (which uses same XU1 SoM). About 50% of schematics for v2 finished.
  • plan was to do layout using service from BNL instrumentation department.
  • Would be happy to work with Altium. But all existing layouts (v1.5, test board) are done in Pads, and this is the tool chosen by the BNL instrumentation department.

 

--> Thomas Koffas will contact Hucheng to discuss about the choice of design tool and the sharing of work between Eric and Sammy.

Tomas Vanat:

  • working on SPARC firmware. Writing it mostly from scratch. Cannot reuse the 40 MHz TLU time stamping fw from Younes, because this synchronisation scheme is not applicable for SPARC.
  • First 3 SPARC test boards equipped with chips are currently being wire bonded at DESY.
