AMS - ECAL Feb 17 th, 2003 Page 6 M. Incagli - INFN Pisa Part III cabling To evaluate cable length I assume that all cables converge to the calorimeter corner and then follow the diagonal support for 325 mm Along the crate I consider an average length of 425 mm  The total average length from the connection point btwn ECAL and ISS is 750 mm  220 mm  325 mm

AMS - ECAL Feb 17 th, 2003 Page 9 M. Incagli - INFN Pisa Part III cabling Weight : cables Total cable length including path to crate is : L TOT = 1664cm + 24  100cm = 4064 cm Note that EDR-EIB data connection, for a readout of 9 PMTs, needs 40 wires, therefore data+trigger=51 wires 90g/m Considering a linear density of 90g/m, for a 51 wires flat cable, the weight is : total:4064cm  0.90gr/cm = 3658 gr data:3658gr  (40/51) = 2869 gr trigger:3658gr  (11/51)  (2/3) = 526 gr unused: 3658gr  (11/51)  (1/3) = 263 gr

AMS - ECAL Feb 17 th, 2003 Page 10 M. Incagli - INFN Pisa Part III cabling Weight : total 51 pin connectors: 5.35 gr Excluding the unused cable the total weight is : W = 2869gr + 526gr + (5.35gr  36) = 3588 gr datatriggerconnectors

Incagli - INFN Pisa Part III cabling Columnwise Also in this case I consider 1 cable per EIB (data+trigger) and I sum the distances to reach the EIB close to the corner To this number I add the same offset to go from the ECAL corner to the crate The result is : L TOT =2462cm+100cm  18  cm  18  2 =11966cm D = 36 mm D z x

AMS - ECAL Feb 17 th, 2003 Page 12 M. Incagli - INFN Pisa Part III cabling Columnwise : total weight In this case, however, one needs only 35(data)+3(TRG)+2(trig DAC)=40 wires : W cab = 11966cm  0.90gr/cm  (40/51) = 8447 gr W con = 5.35gr  72 = 358 gr W TOT = W cab + W con = 8805 gr The contribution of the trigger to the total is 5/40 : W TRG = 8447gr  (5/40) = 1056 gr

AMS - ECAL Feb 17 th, 2003 Page 13 M. Incagli - INFN Pisa Part III cabling Cable length: a final remark The cable length for the columnwise scheme is determined by the routing which separetes X view and Y view (1) Using a different routing for data signals (2), for a 37 wires cable and 37 pin connector the algorithm gives: L TOT =2462cm+100cm  18  4 =9662cm  W = 9662cm  0.90gr/cm  (37/51) + 3.5gr  72 = 6561 gr excluding the trigger cables (1) (2)

AMS - ECAL Feb 17 th, 2003 Page 14 M. Incagli - INFN Pisa Part III cabling Summary of part III Trigger signals go to EDR and, thru backplane, to ETRG  no cables directely to ETRG Trigger signals to ETRG : 108. Some extra input signals are needed to set external values (e.g. angular coefficients) or to mask input channels. Using a horizontal scheme the total cable length/weight (including connectors) is: –L TOT = 41 m –W TOT = 3.6 kg In the vertical scheme(s) : –L TOT = 111m (96m) –W TOT = 8.8kg (6.5kg)
