Converter Regulation Board Status WP PO 09/12/ CRB_PC_Advanced_Control.ppt Ph. Fraboulet – Converter Regulation Board 1
What is the CRB ? Enables the PCO to regulate the current (or field) in the magnet Electronic board – 3U x 200 mm Main features: DSP core for regulation Analogue high precision acquisition interface (for current and voltage) Communication interface with PCC (through the FED) Memory buffers 09/12/ CRB_PC_Advanced_Control.ppt Ph.

What is the CRB ? 09/12/ CRB_PC_Advanced_Control.ppt Ph. Fraboulet – Converter Regulation Board 3
What was done ? A lot of things needed and need to be defined : Link between CRB and PCO Link between CRB and PCC Precision required for the current regulation Trigger interface for PCO control B-field measurement … Documents produced : CRB requirements CRB-PCO interface PCO-PCC interface PCO specifications for tendering CRB design : Schematics should be finished by the end of the year 09/12/ CRB_PC_Advanced_Control.ppt Ph. Fraboulet – Converter Regulation Board 4
Next steps ? CRB design : PCB routing – End of January 2011 Manufacturing a prototype – March 2011 Validating the proto – Building a PCO simulator Interface with MACS going on : PCC architecture and driver design PCC and CRB interface XML definition files and RMS 09/12/ CRB_PC_Advanced_Control.ppt Ph.
