Agenda

  • Activity updates
  • General discussion

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
    • To keep the data volume manageable, we'd like to use 32-bit words for the accumulated values we transfer when running at the ~2kHz. A 32-bit word would overflow after 16384 18-bit samples are accumulated. At the nominal 14.7MHz sampling rate, this is an integration period of about 1.1us.
      • To support longer integration periods, what is best choice:
        1. Accumulate in 32-bit words, but change the setting of the effective sampling rate so that we wouldn't saturate
        2. Apply an software-selectable bit shift to the ADC values before they are accumulated in 32-bit words
        3. Accumulate the sums in 64-bit words, but have an option to either transfer just the low 32-bits or transfer the full 64 bits.
