Overall presentation : the principle psTDC_02 presentation 2/24/2019 Overall presentation : the principle
Overall presentation : the chip architecture psTDC_02 presentation 2/24/2019 Overall presentation : the chip architecture Token read-out channels 1 & 2 Token read-out channels 3, 4 & 5 Control logic & Output bus Test structures Input signals 40MHz clock Channels 1 & 2 Timing Generator Channels 3, 4 & 5
The timing generator: principle psTDC_02 presentation 2/24/2019 The timing generator: principle 256 cells Fixed sampling window To the channels Variable sampling window 40MHz clock DLL out monitoring
The timing generator Same architecture conserved psTDC_02 presentation 2/24/2019 The timing generator Same architecture conserved Ajustable delay with two voltages Fixed and variable window generation (improvement)
The channels: principle psTDC_02 presentation 2/24/2019 The channels: principle 12 bits counter Ring oscillator ck en buffer comparator rd wr ramp cap (x 256)
The Channel Sampling window Buffer Comparator Counter - ADC psTDC_02 presentation 2/24/2019 The Channel Sampling window Buffer Comparator Counter - ADC
The Sampling window More control logic Bigger input capacitance psTDC_02 presentation 2/24/2019 The Sampling window More control logic Bigger input capacitance Same bandwidth
The Buffer The Comparator Better input dynamic A bit slower psTDC_02 presentation 2/24/2019 The Buffer Better input dynamic A bit slower Use less current The Comparator Same spec Use less current
Control signal Ramp generator Ring oscillator Trigger (improvement) psTDC_02 presentation 2/24/2019 Control signal Ramp generator Ring oscillator Trigger (improvement) Selections unit for read out
The ramp generator Improved range and linearity psTDC_02 presentation 2/24/2019 The ramp generator Improved range and linearity Hopefully fixed the in-chip coupling Buffer per channel
The ring oscillator Added a fan-out: better clock distribution psTDC_02 presentation 2/24/2019 The ring oscillator Added a fan-out: better clock distribution
