L.S. Durkin, CMS Review, September Status: On-Chamber Boards Beam tests (GIF at CERN, 9/1999) of on-chamber boards showed that they met design specifications. Tests with 60 Mev protons and 1 MeV neutrons (UCD, OSU 5/2000) verified that the boards are tolerant to radiation at 3 times the calculated levels. Tests in magnetic fields (8/2000 at OSU, UCLA and FNAL) showed that the boards operate beyond 3.5 T. Spark protection circuits on CFEB and AFEB tested extensively with induced chamber sparks. Approved for production (CFEB, AFEB in 9/00; ALCT, LVDB in 11/01). Production of on-chamber boards is on schedule and within the budget.

L.S. Durkin, CMS Review, September Anode timing resolution measured in 1999 beam test ALCT can be used as timing mark for each CSC hit. LHC clock from the TTC system will be used as a “TDC” to locate ALCT’s with respect to BC0 (start of LHC orbit). A primary goal of the time-structured beam test is to validate the peripheral crate electronics’ capability to unambiguously tag CSC hits using the TTC system and anode timing. 25ns  =3.9 ns Time (ns) ALCT time using TDC BXN ID Using ALCT and TTC System

L.S. Durkin, CMS Review, September BXN for L1A and ALCT (2003 beam test) BX Number L!A (Beam Scintillation Counters) 48 bunches BX Number ALCT (Anode trigger Primitive) 48 bunches

With 2 or more CSC’s, probability is higher than 99.9 %.  EMU system’s ability to tag BXN for each CSC hit using the TTC system has been validated. (L1A is scintillation counter in beam) CSC #1 CSC #2

L.S. Durkin, CMS Review, September CFEB Pulse Shape Cathode pulses were fitted by constraining peak to 133 ns Start time (Ts) and pulse height (P.H.) were extracted from fits. Plot shows digitized samples overlaid for all 500 pulses with Ts aligned and PH normalized to Time (ns)

L.S. Durkin, CMS Review, September Spatial Resolution from Cathode Strips Resolution is best for hit near the edge of strip, worst at the center. In a CSC, the 6 layers are staggered alternately by ½ strip width. The combined resolution is ~ 100  m per chamber Distance from edge of strip (unit: strip width) Spatial resolution (  m) Single layer resolution ME2,3/2 chamber

EMU system’s ability to tag BXN for each CSC hit using the TTC system has been validated. Efficiencies ~ 99% for both ALCT and CLCT –Lowered AFEB, Comparator thresholds (low CSC gas gain) –offline cuts to eliminate junk events Cathode strip timing and spatial resolution satisfactory. A lot of ALCT, CLCT data vs CSC angles (  ) was taken. DAQ rate tests carried out with high intensity pion beam. –100 KHz L1A (scintillators), 100 KHz LCT, 1 Kz matched L1A-LCT with 16 SCA sample readout.
