Introduction I I.N.F.N. Naples The CMS sub-detectors will be equipped with a large part of the HV and LV systems placed around the detector; in a not “easily accessible” area. The CMS and ATLAS RPC groups are investigating the possibility to have both the systems around the detector, working in a very hard conditions for the high magnetic field and high radiation environment. The LHC RPC groups, in collaboration with the CAEN, have designed and tested an HV-LV prototype (SASY 2000) able to work in an hostile area. The system is based on the idea to split in two the HV and LV systems: LOCAL: Central system (mainframes) placed in control room; REMOTE: distribution system placed around/on the detector, consisting of a crate housing the HV and LV boards. A natural evolution of the SASY2000 has been presented to CMS (May 03) by the CAEN company: EASY system. Different solutions have been analyzed by the CMS RPC group 18/09/2018 RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N. Napoli

RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N. Napoli SASY 2000 prototype I.N.F.N. Naples SASY 2000 prototype The HV-LV prototype 0 consists of: 1 HV board (SA2001), 3 LV boards (SA2002) and 1 controller. It has been split in three pieces, following a “logical separation” of the system, in order to study the functionality of every single piece and component. The following tests has been performed on both the prototypes and will be repeated for the final boards: Magnetic field test up to 7 KGauss (at CERN) (results shown by CAEN at CERN in May 2002) Radiation test up to 10 LHC eq-years (at Louvain La Neuve) (results shown) Test on the RPC to study the noise condition (to be performed at the test station in Bari); High Stress Test to study the system under very hard conditions (under test in Napoli). 18/09/2018 RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N.

Neutron radiation test I.N.F.N. Naples The SASY2000 HV-LV prototype has been tested twice (May-Aug 2002) at the Louvain La Neuve radiation facility. The total neutron fluence requests for 10 LHC years is about 1x1012 n/cm2 (note: in RE1/1 region) corresponding to 2 hours and 40 min with a beam at 1 mA at 70 cm SASY2000 In first session the system worked well for 30 min. corresponding to 1.8 • 1011 n/cm2 (a factor 6 higher than that expected on RB4!) We lost the communication with the prototype. CAEN reported a known loss of current gain due to irradiation on CNY17 opto-insulator used to enable the HV/LV channels. The prototype was irradiated for 80 min corresponding to 4.8*1011 n/cm2. On the second prototype (ATLAS one) the gain current loss was cured using a lower value biasing resistor. Was registered a few SE on the controller with loss of communication but the normal condition was restored after 1 s on power OFF/ON condition (it will be implemented by firmware an HOT RESET to recover the communication without interruption of remote power supply). After the irradiation the SASY2000 was tested outside, preserving its original functionality. (robustness of hardware) 18/09/2018 RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N. Napoli

High Stress Test in Naples I I.N.F.N. Naples The High Stress Test system has been designed and developed by the group of Naples in order to make a complete test of any HV-LV power supply. It consists of a test-box controlled by a PC running LabVIEW 6.1 At present the HST system is able to make: Long term test: A cycle of measurements (voltage and current) made using different resistive charge (from 1M to 10 G) to explore the whole range of the PS. Spark test: A cycle of spark at different voltages are generated in order to test the hardware/software behavior of the PS under this critical conditions. Calibration: independent measurement of the voltage and current (PS and test-box). The Trip-time, the rump-up and rump-down are also calibrated. 18/09/2018 RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N. Napoli

High Stress Test description I I.N.F.N. Naples The test-box consists of a custom rotating switch controlled by a step-to-step motor through a microcontroller (Microchip) . Each position of the switch corresponds to an electrical contact placed on a PCB and positioned on a circle at a distance of 22,5o each others. The motor needs 400 steps to make a complete turn corresponding to about 0.9o/step. 18/09/2018 RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N. Napoli

High Stress Test description II I.N.F.N. Naples The micro-controller PIC 16F876-04 is used to: controls the motor through a custom board housing a “power driver” used to generate the phases needs to control the motor. drive the LCD monitor placed on the box and the manual control. drive the communication through a serial port RS232 used to connect it to a PC. control an internal ADC (10 bits) and drive a Programmable Gain Amplifier. It is used to measure the current provided by the PS at different full scale (1mA, 100 mA, 1mA). Each position of the commutator is connected to: a different resistive charge (10G, 5G, 1G, 100M, 9M, 6); one of the four spark systems (10KV, 5KV, 2KV, short); The spark system consists of two electrodes connected between the high voltage and the ground, placed at a fixed distance in order to generate sparks at a predetermined voltage. 18/09/2018 RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N.

RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N. Napoli Ripple measurements I.N.F.N. Naples We are studying the noise and ripple of the HV and LV boards using a scope connected to a PC equipped with LabVIEW. After a month we have not seen any unusual noise/events on both the boards. The ripple peek to peek at load (f < 1 MHz) of the 2 HV channels is < 20 mV while for the 6 LV channels it is about 200 mv ??? The problem is present also when LV is OFF but mainframe is ON (could be a bad ground connection ?) is under study. 18/09/2018 RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N. Napoli

CMS common LV solution proposal I.N.F.N. Naples In the 2002 the CMS collaboration decided to evaluated the possibility to have a common solution for the LV (and HV) system in order to minimize: costs, installation, software, spare, expertise and maintenance. The idea has been enthusiastically accepted by the sub-detector unless HCAL. CMS has contacted a lot of electronic companies asking them to propose a common LV solution for all the subsystems giving them some general requirement and all the requirement got from each sub-detector. In the last CMS Electronic week (May 2003) companies have been invited to present a LV system for all the CMS subsystem. Two companies; CAEN and WIENER presented two projects for LV (and HV) The CAEN project, called EASY, is a natural evolution of the SASY 2000 18/09/2018 RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N.

RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N. Napoli HV & LV board test I.N.F.N. Naples Every HV and LV boards will be tested using “loading” box built in Naples. We are still discussing about the place to test them (Naples or at CERN). The test consists in a sequence of ramp-up and ramp-down followed by a 24 hours test at maximum load of every channels. Test will be done automatically using a LabView program written in Naples by David Lomidze; Board info and results will be stored in an ad-hoc mysql DB. The board will not pass the test will be sent back to the CAEN. We hope to finish our test in May 2006 and to begin the installation during the summer 2006. 18/09/2018 RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N. Napoli

RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N. Napoli Conclusions I.N.F.N. Naples The HV and LV boards are now, after three interactions with CAEN, in the specification and are in production; Chamber cables are in production (first 2 sectors); Ready to produce the “long cable” (waiting for cut–length); Distributors and patch panels are almost ready (mid 2006); The systems will be installed during the summer 2006; Still working on the 48 Volts AC/DC converter; Reduced system will be test during the next year Cosmic Challenge; Let me thanks Ranieri and Loddo for all the work done on the system before and with the Naples group. 18/09/2018 RPC Manufacturing Review - Pierluigi Paolucci - I.N.F.N.
