Evaluate the operation and performance of the ePixHR detector (ideally ASIC v4)
Conny has discussed the possibility of creating a non-ghosting 10k camera for beamtimes 1/2 and is hopeful this will be possible. The ePixHR ASIC v4. the prototype was also addressed, and he needs six weeks after the arrival of the ASIC to be able to make one/two for us.
- Discuss what testing needs to be done, what additional equipment needs to be ready (ACQ/pulse oscilloscope system), DAQ scripts we want to try and realize, and what direct visualization scripts need to be available.
- Kaz has also talked to Meng and Andy, and they will try and give us ~3hrs of testing from their CXI check-out time as well;
- IH proposal review panel for run 22 was held yesterday, we are currently making the cut with our UHR proposal.
- Progress for the past week:
- ACQ window increase testing;
- Progress in getting the pulser system up and running at ASC - Xilinx cards have been flashed;
- Relative gain ratios;ACQ window increase testing;
- Gabriel's calibration method;
- any other business;
- Initial ePixM test plan for the non-back-thinned and back-thinned prototypes. Test plan to be discussed can be found here: 1.4.8. Performance evaluation
