Agenda

• Activity updates
  • Some progress on the digital beam monitor project.
    1. Reading in a static bit pattern. https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4236737
    2. Reading in serial data. https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4238072 and https://logbooks.jlab.org/entry/4238568
• General discussion
  • Space needs for test stands at JLab

Open Issues to be followed up later

1. Discussions with M. Pitt & J. Musson to understand the beam monitor signals we'll be getting
2. Draft timing diagram: DocDB 790
3. Michael, Bob, Brynne, and Paul should put together a list of the integrator running modes we would like to have available

• Activity updates
  • Daryl has no new report. Bryerton is on vacation this week.
  • Michael has not yet started testing the 2nd prototypes yet, but plans to do that in the next week. Part of the delay has been getting a new PoE switch
    • We discuss what switch we might want for use in the hall; Daryl and Paul will send Michael some suggestions for discussion
  • Digital beam monitor project
    • Bob has been able to read the digital stream from the receiver when he injects various RF powers into it. He is seeing a lot of noise at the higher
  • Dustin reiterates what he had reported at the end of the year: the 5.6V DC-DC converters seem to be more radiation resistant. He's happy to do more testing if needed.
    • KK would like to have a meeting with Michael and Dustin about the DC-DC converter radiation studies and what to do for the experiment
  • Bill Li mentions that they are working on setting up the GEM test stand at Stony Brook
• General discussion
  • Space needs for test stands at JLab
    • Planning for two new test stands, one for polarimetery and one for the integrating DAQ tests.
    • Bob says we just need to come up with a plan for how much space we need, and that Walt Akers was pretty optimisitic about finding space for us.
  • Hanjie mentions that she will be helping Sayak to set up the UMass test stand to do the detector segment testing.
