    BI/TB on LHC Fast BCT detectors, Digital Electronics, GEFE and VFC production

    → Europe/Zurich
    CERN

    CERN
    Hide

    Notes and actions:

    A) ICT and WCT for LHC Fast BCTs (M. Krupa)

    1) No clear recommendations given to BI/TB for which detectors to be used on the LHC for 2016++ so TB requests that L. Soby and D. Belohrad writes document (ECR draft) proposing what goes where.

    We also need to decide what to do for the SPS Ring detector (BA3 and BA5)

    B) Digital Integration (J. Kral)

    1) BLM firmware specifications to be reviewed next week with Bernd

    2) Action plan to be made for purchasing mezzanines

    C) GEFE (M. Barros)

    1) PCB updated by Jan-2016

    2) Use for PS-BGI to be decided with lower data rate (Hermann to launch meeting)

    D) VFC production

    1) Finalise the PCB layout next week (Andrea et al)

    2) Discuss with FP about remaining module on Norcott contract (~20)

    3) SLM decision for number of VFCs per section and who produces and tests
