<p>Stripped down contents of AIDA NIM bins to only what is required by AIDA.</p> <p>Now have BNC PB-5 pulser, sum and invert module, single and quad Caen HV supplies in the top crate and the MACBs in the bottom crate.</p> <p>Removed were FIFO, leading edge discriminator and a quad coincidence module, all used in the DAQ integration.</p> <p>Smallest dial on pulser potentiometer was round at an unlikely number, seems to have been knocked.</p> <p> - connected to scope and consecutive values on the biggest dial does not produce integer multiples of the lowest setting -> needs sorting out for future pulser walkthroughs.</p> <p> </p> <p>Tested tripped detector from Apr/May (BB18-1000 3131-11) with kaptons connected to nnaida1,3,5,8 (GND to nnaida1), +ve HV with braid to front strips via nnaida5 and core to back strips via nnaida3.</p> <p> - biased to +150V with a stable leakage current of 9.5uA in a very warm room.</p> <p> - stable for ~2mins then I_L jumped to 20uA and detector tripped.</p> <p> - subsequently unable to successfully bias the detector. Trips on ramping up around 15-20V every time.</p> <p> - no visible damage or broken bond wire.</p> <p>Initial conclusion is this detector is broken (but see bellow). Then tried with another (BB18-1000 2977-15, pre-prod)</p> <p> - encountered similar problems in that the detector tripped once at ~+50V and then kept tripping around +12V thereafter.</p> <p>This was all carried out with the jumper combination already present from the end of the run in May - Lk1,3,5+7 had jumpers on on all FEEs, but we were unable to bias detector.</p> <p>Removed all jumpers and 2977-15 biased successfully to ~75V (with 10.12 uA leakage current). Pulser resolution ~700 ch FWHM for NNAIDA 1 (p-side); 20 ch for NNAIDA2 (no DSSD connected)</p> <p>Setting1:</p> <p> - Add jumpers LK1 to nnaida1 (w/grounded Kapton cable), LK3 to nnaida3 (+75 V), LK1 and LK3 to nnaida5 (ref. 0V), and LK3 to nnaida8 (revB PCB). See attachment 1.</p> <p> - Biased with 10.44 uA leakage current @ 75V</p> <p> - About half of the Cu-braids with ground connections across FEEs are loose (clamps had snapped while moving table/mounting DSSD).</p> <p> - Using 2015Apr30-diode-mod2 ASIC settings.</p> <p> - Resolution of sample channels (FWHM): nnaida1: 320 ch, nnaida3: 500 ch, nnaida5: 280 ch, nnaida8: 180 ch.</p> <p>Tried a couple more jumper settings:</p> <p> - nnaida1: LK1+LK3, nnaida3: LK3, nnaida5: LK1+LK3, nnaida8: LK1+LK3: overcurrent with a couple of volts (short circuit, likely LK1 in nnaida8).</p> <p> - nnaida1: LK1+LK3, nnaida3: LK3, nnaida5: LK1+LK3, nnaida8: LK3: detector trips (I>20uA) at about 18 V, and after tripping first time there is a steeper increase of I vs V (~20uA at ~ 9V).</p> <p> </p> <p>Setting2:</p> <p> - Same jumpers as setting 1: nnaida1: LK1, nnaida3: LK3, nnaida5: LK1+LK3, nnaida8: LK3.</p> <p> - Connect all Cu-braid cables to ground the Cu blocks of first two rings of FEEs.</p> <p> - The resolution in all FEEs improved to about 170ch FWHM, except for nnaida1 (with grounded Kapton cable): nnaida1: 310 ch, nnaida3: 170 ch, nnaida5: 180 ch, nnaida8: 160 ch.
