3 Paulo Moreirahttp://www.cern.ch/proj-qpll3 Outline QPLL jitter problem –Crystal activity dips –Power reduction network Circuit Layout Irradiation tests TTCrq

4 Paulo Moreirahttp://www.cern.ch/proj-qpll4 QPLL Jitter Problem August 2004: –Stefan Simion found that at some frequencies an temperatures the QPLL jitter was largely exceeding the typical values. September 2004 –Both Nevis and CERN worked quite hard at the problem but all the hypotheses were either rejected or difficult to confirm. October 2004 –With the help of Micro Crystal it was possible to confirm that the problem was due to activity dips in the crystal due to excessive power driving. October/November 2004 –During this period work was done to find a simple and effective way of reducing the power delivered to the crystal.

5 Paulo Moreirahttp://www.cern.ch/proj-qpll5 Activity dips Activity dips are due to vibration modes that are mechanically coupled to the fundamental resonant mode. –The fundamental mode is a thickness shear motion while modes causing activity dips are not. –These modes can have frequencies quite close to the fundamental mode and are very dependent on temperature. –They can thus interfere with the fundamental mode distorting the electrical characteristics of the crystal near the resonance.

6 Paulo Moreirahttp://www.cern.ch/proj-qpll6 Power reduction network R1 = 62 , R2 = 240 , C = 10 nF

7 Paulo Moreirahttp://www.cern.ch/proj-qpll7 Power reduction network Parasitic capacitance on “N1”: Increases the power drive Pulls the resonance frequency Must be minimized As far as we can tell: Activity dips are eliminated QPLL jitter and centre frequency remain basically unchanged.

9 Paulo Moreirahttp://www.cern.ch/proj-qpll9 Irradiation Tests Irradiation tests made in Boston by: –Sefan Simion and John Parsons Proton beam: –Energy: 160 MeV –Fluence: 2.3 to 2.5 10 13 p/cm 2 QPLL3 Quartz crystals: –Micro Crystal –Conner Winfield (Accelerated aging tests being done at CERN)

11 Paulo Moreirahttp://www.cern.ch/proj-qpll11 Irradiation Jitter higher than what is measured normally in the lab due to experimental conditions and instruments used cwMC cw

12 Paulo Moreirahttp://www.cern.ch/proj-qpll12 TTCrq New TTCrq on the drawing board –Introduction of the power network –Pin J2 - 39 will become a +2.5 V power input For cards working in a radiation hard environment that can not use the internal 2.5 V regulator Optional 0  resistor for 100% compatibility with the previous version –Optional 100  internal terminations for the LVDS signals
