TMB and RAT Status Report Endcap Muon meeting @ OSU June 6, 2004 Martin von der Mey University of California, Los Angeles Previous Status (OSU, April) Update Future Plans
2
6/6/2004 CMS Endcap Muon meeting@CERN 2 TMB2004A and RAT2004A Last meeting’s status: TMB boards (32) were debugged. RAT boards (32) were assembled, 1 debugged. 10 XC2V3000 mezzanine cards were produced for test beam.

6/6/2004 CMS Endcap Muon meeting@CERN 3 TMB/RAT Hardware Update (April-May) All 32 RAT boards were debugged. Full-crate tests at OSU and Rice have been pretty successful. Possible small firmware bug in TMB fake muon sequence to MPC (32 frames OK, 256 not) Full Virtex-II order (XC2V4000) placed, 100/540 chips received. New TMB Virtex-II mezz. card layout (PNPI). Currently reviewing mezzanine card bids for production and assembly.

6/6/2004 CMS Endcap Muon meeting@CERN 4 TMB/RAT Firmware Update (April-May) RPC data readout simulated, debugged. New RPC-related control and data registers. Firmware updated for new FPGA pin-out. Compiles without errors. This fixes all previous problems.
5
6/6/2004 CMS Endcap Muon meeting@CERN 5 TMB/RAT Testing Update (April-May) Successful tests at UC FAST site: New TMB firmware. New feed-through backplane. RAT module ALCT interface (timing changes). Debugging updates to PCC software. 4 TMBs currently in use at X5A. Parts shipped for RPC tests: Rear card cage (from Wiener) arrived. Shipped backplane that connects to RAT. Shipped RPC Link Board-to-RAT cables (5x2m and 4x8m variants).

6/6/2004 CMS Endcap Muon meeting@CERN 6 Future Plans I TMB boards: Ready to go into production pending successful beam test. Mezzanine boards: Components in hand except for Eproms. Ready to go into pre-production pending successful beam test. RAT modules can go right into production, but: Need to see results with ALCTs and RPCs. Need to test full pre-production backplane. Need full crate mock-up (cable installation, strain relief, etc. issues).
7
6/6/2004 CMS Endcap Muon meeting@CERN 7 Future Plans II RPC→Link Board→RAT→TMB testing: Link-to-RAT initial tests can be done with or without RPC chamber (connectivity test, send beam xing bits). Cosmic ray tests of RPC→Link→RAT nearly as interesting as beam test. A few new RPC-related TMB registers (need small update to PCC software).
