Tip

The GT Readout Platform aims to provide a readout for use with new pixel detectors developed at SLAC (≥ 2023), which use high-speed (> 1 Gbit/s) gigabit transceivers for their data output. See for example the SparkPix-IO prototype.

It consists of three main parts (shown in the block diagram below):

  • Digital board with FPGA and a multi-channel high-speed optical transceivers for external communication
  • Analog board with control and monitoring circuitry of the ASICs as well as power supplies
  • Carrier board with up to four ASICs

The sections below describe the platform in more detail. Use the table of contents below to quickly find a specific section you might be looking for or use one of the useful resources on the right for quick access.

The number of GTs in this FPGA does not fit any of the cameras we are targetting

This is fine for the 2x2 Systems.

For the larger systems we need more than 3 FPGAs

The current drawn by the 0.6V current sink should not be counted twice since it's sourced by the G_AS.

The power drawn by the ASIC analog part is 1.3V*4.4A*4= 23W.

With 1.8V as the LDO input, we are also burning: (1.8-1.3)V*4.4A*4 = 9W.

The power drawn by the TPS should be less than 2W.


So the power that the DC/DC converters have to provide is around 23 + 9 + 2 = 34W.

Considering the efficiency curves of the DC/DC converters:

High priority tasks and questions

Note

The tasks and questions below should be looked at as soon as possible since they might be blocking

  •  Check 24V to 1.8V (LT8648S) if it works at 30A
  •  Verify the power plane thickness for high-current rails (request by Doering, Dionisio)
  •  Does the cooling system include a Peltier cell?
  •  Replace LT1764 with LT3083 for simpler paralleling circuitry (see power graph)?
  •  Substitute HS DAC: from MAX5719A to AD5541A ?
  •  ASIC team is still not able to quote us on the digital section power consumption.
    •  For now I would proceed as if the requirement was double w.r.t the old version
  •  Request components for Altium library (see Altium Missing Components section)
    •  See

titleArchived questions
  •  Route +6V or +24V between analog and digital board?
    •  If +6V: All first-stage converters (LT8648S) must be on one the board with the input TFM connector
    •  +24V between boards
  •  For the 0.6V sink:
  •  On which board does the power connector (TFM) go and which type (TFM-112, TFM-115, etc)? (update Connectors section)
    •  TFM-113-02-L-DH was used on the ePixHR250M_2x2_Camera
    •  Analog board
  •  Use FPGA transceivers for clocking the ASICs?
    •  Yes 
    •  One per ASIC?
      •  Yes
      •  I think one per ASIC is the best solution. Is there any reason why we should go for a clock splitter?
        •  Probably no unless we run out of connector pins
  •  Does the digital board need the analog ground (AGND)? (see grounding)
    •  Will have it anyway since the TFM power connector is on the digital board
  •  What's the expected operating temperature range?
    •  -25C → +50C
  •  Are the ASIC digital supply (G_DS_X) and I/O supply (G_IO_X) shared among all four ASICs?
    •  Yes
  •  Can the DC/DC architecture be simplified? Some ICs not in stock, see DC/DC converters
    •  Replace LMZ31530 (30A) with TPSM5D1806 in parallel mode (12A) since Vcc_int is estimated at 7A?
      •  No, the 20A version should be available (LMZ31520)
  •  Provide space to measure both input (manual) and output (ADC) currents for all DC/DC?
  •  TPSM5D1806 does not work for 6V to 5.5V as a pre-LDO regulator!
    •  For 5.5V output, the minimum input voltage is 9.6V. See Table 7-3 in datasheet.
    •  Change first-stage converter to output 5.5V/5.0V instead of 6V?
      •  Second-stage LMZ31520 (Vout=0.85V) should be OK
      •  Second-stage TPSM5D1806 (Vout=1.8V and 0.9V) should be OK
      •  Changed first-stage converter to 5.0V on digital board now
  •  Remove DC/DC monitor on digital board
  •  Do we have the CML current consumption numbers?
    •  Gang is saying around 20mA (15mA + 30% LVT) per ASIC TX Transceiver (for all frequencies). ASIC RX consumption is negligible 
    •  Update power estimation table with these numbers

The number of GTs in this FPGA does not fit any of the cameras we are targetting

This is fine for the 2x2 Systems.

The current drawn by the 0.6V current sink should not be counted twice since its sourced by the G_AS.

The power drawn by the ASIC analog part is 1.3V*4.4A*4= 23W.

If using 1.8V as the LDO input, we are burning also (1.8-1.3)V*4.4A*4 = 9W.

The power drawn by the rest of analog voltages should be less than 2W.

So the power that the DC/DC converters have to provide is around 23 + 9 + 2 = 34W.

For the digital consumption of the ASIC we do not have precise numbers regarding the new CML logic.

Let's assume a double consumption w.r.t the LVDS design.

1.3V*6A = 8W

LDO losses = 0.5*6A = 3W

11W / 85% / 93% = 14W(ASIC Digital)

Worst case scenario, the remaining electronics will draw 1A, multiplied by 5.5V = 5.5W, which before the DCDC will become 5.5W /85 = 7W

Optional bypass of LDOs for ASIC

There are optional bypass jumpers on the analog board, as shown in the diagram above, for providing power to the ASIC directly from the LT8638S switching regulators. This will bypass the LDOs and can be used to test the performance of the ASIC when it's powered from a "dirtier" power source.

Warning
titleWarning if bypassing LDOs for ASICs

Make sure to adjust the output voltage of the switching regulators from 1.8 V to 1.3 V before powering up with an ASIC as the 1.8 V can cause permanent damage! The LDOs that are bypassed should also be removed from the board.

Clocks

There are four main clock sources:

  • Oscillator for GTY transceivers for LCLS-II timing
  • Oscillator for GTY transceivers for PGP communication
  • Jitter attenuator with various input choices for FPGA logic and GTY transceivers
  • Jitter attenuator with various input choices for FPGA logic and GTH transceivers

The SI53340 clock buffer only buffers the input clock source into four output clocks with low amount of jitter added. The SI5345B is a jitter attenuator and an "any-frequency" multiplier where one input is selected that is fed to a PLL which then feeds multipliers for the individual outputs. Each output can therefore be programmed to different frequencies, which are synchronous with the selected input clock.

ASIC GT clock generation

The gigabit transceivers (GTs) in the ASIC require a high-frequency clock (2-3 GHz) with low jitter. There is no PLL inside the ASIC so it has to be provided from an external source (see SparkPix-IOs: fast I/Os prototype (~5 Gb/s) on TSMC 130nm). The proposed architecture will use the GTH transceiver outputs of the Kintex UltraScale+ to generate a "clock" from a static "101010..." bit pattern.

ASIC GT AC-coupling

There are high-speed signals in both directions between the ASICs and the FPGA:

  • Clock signals from the FPGA GTH TX to the ASIC GT CLK
  • Data signals from the ASIC GT TX to the FPGA GTH RX

These could either be DC-coupled or AC-coupled, which means that a series capacitor in the order of ~100nF is placed in series with the signal somewhere along the path. It is also called DC-blocking capacitors as described by Dr. Howard Johnson in an article on his website. The question is, where to place the capacitors? Close to the transmitter, in the middle, close to the receiver or somewhere else? In Johnson's article he argues that the main effect of these capacitors will be an impedance mismatch because the package of the capacitor will be bigger than the trace itself and we end up with an impedance that is less than the nominal impedance Z0 of the transmission line. This will result in negative reflections. He then argues that the effect of such a reflection has to be considered in relationship to the symbol baud interval and if it's much less than 1/2 of the baud interval it will have a minimal effect. We are working with up to 6 Gbit/s which gives a baud interval of 167ps. With a propagation delay of around 150 ps/inch (source) it means that to have minimal impact it has to be much less than 1/4 inch (~6 mm), somewhere in the order 1/20 of an inch (~1.2 mm) which is not practical on a PCB with IC packages, passives and routing.

For these high-speed cases it is therefore not the distance of the capacitor from the transmitter that matters, but instead the layout and routing of the traces around the capacitor.The goal is instead to minimize the effect of the capacitor on the impedance of the trace. One example Johnson gives is to reduce the parasitic capacitance underneath the body of the capacitor with a keep-out region in the reference plane underneath. A similar concept is shown in a layout design guide (local pdf copy, see page 30) for an Intel Stratix 10 device.

If we look at the LEAP transceiver that we are using in this project we can see that it has the AC-coupling capacitors on both RX and TX inside the package itself. This probably ensures that the effect of the capacitors is reduced as much as possible and they might use very small package sizes.

In our case it's probably a question of physical constraints that define where we can place the capacitors. For all four ASICs we would need 4*8*2+4*2=72 capacitors for data and clocks. Placing these on the carrier board might be tricky. Having them on the analog board would be a tight fit due to all the power supplies it has. That leaves the digital board which should hopefully have enough space to make a "clean" implementation of these capacitors.

ASIC timing and control signals - voltage level translation

The ASIC timing (SRO, R0, ACQ and INJ) and control (GR_N, SACI_SEL[3..0], SACI_CLK, SACI_CMD and SACI_RSP) are 1.3 V CMOS signals in the ASIC that has be be interfaced with the FPGA banks. In previous systems (e.g. ePixHR10k 2M digital board (TXI)) these were 2.5 V CMOS and were driven directly from HD banks in the Kintex UltraScale+ (except for SACI_SEL and SACI_RSP that were driven via MAX3002 from 1.8 V HP banks).

In short, there are two types of voltage level translators: auto-sensing bidirectional ones with transmission gates that will pull up or down when a rising or falling edge are detected; directional ones which has input receivers in one voltage domain and output drivers in the other voltage domain. The auto-sensing ones seem to lack information about the timing characteristics in the datasheet which is probably because it depends on how it is used and the device that is driving the pins of the translator. The directional ones are probably a better fit for this application where we know the direction and want as high drive strength as possible to propagate from the digital board all the way to the ASIC on the carrier board.

  • Source files: LT3091 test.zip
  • A LT1965 LDO feeds a 2.5 V (Vin) voltage to two LT3091 in parallel
  • At the outputs of the LT3091 there is a 2.4 A current source with a 1.2 V voltage source (will be 1.3 V in final application) in series that emulate the ASIC front-end
  • The SET pins have a 50 uA reference current source in LT3091
    • Since there are two in this configuration the total current is 100 uA
    • This means that the voltage is V=I*R=100e-6*19e3 = 1.9 V
    • This voltage is relative to the "GND" pins which are at a 2.5 V potential
    • The potential at the output is therefore 2.5-1.9 = 0.6 V
    • Closest standard value resistor is 19.1k that results in V = 1.91 V → Output is at 0.59 V

Updated simulation with LT3806 and ballast resistor compensation

  • The LT3086 feeds the two LT3091's with 2.5 V
  • The LT3086 is fed with a 5 V supply
  • The Imonn signal is tapped off at a voltage divider which compensates for the two 10mR ballast resistors at the outputs of the LT3091's

titleArchived questions
  •  Route +6V or +24V between analog and digital board?
    •  If +6V: All first-stage converters (LT8648S) must be on one the board with the input TFM connector
    •  +24V between boards
  •  For the 0.6V sink:
  •  On which board does the power connector (TFM) go and which type (TFM-112, TFM-115, etc)? (update Connectors section)
    •  TFM-113-02-L-DH was used on the ePixHR250M_2x2_Camera
    •   Analog board
  •  Use FPGA transceivers for clocking the ASICs?
    •  Yes 
    •  One per ASIC?
      •  Yes
      •  I think one per ASIC is the best solution. Is there any reason why we should go for a clock splitter?
        •  Probably no unless we run out of connector pins
  •  Does the digital board need the analog ground (AGND)? (see grounding)
    •  Will have it anyway since the TFM power connector is on the digital board
  •  What's the expected operating temperature range?
    •  -25C → +50C
  •  Are the ASIC digital supply (G_DS_X) and I/O supply (G_IO_X) shared among all four ASICs?
    •  Yes
  •  Can the DC/DC architecture be simplified? Some ICs not in stock, see DC/DC converters
    •  Replace LMZ31530 (30A) with TPSM5D1806 in parallel mode (12A) since Vcc_int is estimated at 7A?
      •  No, the 20A version should be available (LMZ31520)
  •  Provide space to measure both input (manual) and output (ADC) currents for all DC/DC?
  •  TPSM5D1806 does not work for 6V to 5.5V as a pre-LDO regulator!
    •  For 5.5V output, the minimum input voltage is 9.6V. See Table 7-3 in datasheet.
    •  Change first-stage converter to output 5.5V/5.0V instead of 6V?
      •  Second-stage LMZ31520 (Vout=0.85V) should be OK
      •  Second-stage TPSM5D1806 (Vout=1.8V and 0.9V) should be OK
      •  Changed first-stage converter to 5.0V on digital board now
  •  Remove DC/DC monitor on digital board
  •  Do we have the CML current consumption numbers?
    •  Gang is saying around 20mA (15mA + 30% LVT) per ASIC TX Transceiver (for all frequencies). ASIC RX consumption is negligible 
    •  Update power estimation table with these numbers
  •  Check 24V to 1.8V (LT8648S) if it works at 30A
  •  Replace LT1764 with LT3083 for simpler paralleling circuitry (see power graph)?
    •  No, using multiple LT3086 in parallel instead (up to 3x)
  •  Substitute HS DAC: from MAX5719A to AD5541A?
  •  Does the cooling system include a Peltier cell?
    •  The Peltier cells were removed after ePixHR10k5fps. We now adopt HFE cooling for low temperature liquid chillers or CO2 cooling systems

Nice to have

Transceiver

  • Ideal is to reuse the 300Gbps Leap On transceiver from Amphenol, unless we find a replacement that operates with single mode power supply.

Board material 

  • Needs to be FR408HR or better

System level simulation 

  • GT to the ASICs
  • GT to the transceivers
  • Power drops
AnchorconnectorsconnectorsConnectorsFunctionalityObservationslinkCarrier to analog board
  • How are we going to prevent ePixHRM carriers to be connected in to the 100kfps digital board and vice-versa?
    • Options could be mechanical pins or change connector polarities
    • Or via serial ID (needs to have a database) via soft locks
  • Routes all power, data and control signals to/from the ASICs
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1b_nFUIKPOlVZJwAgv-RxHJQhuoHP3wuV?rtpof=true&usp=drive_fsAnalog to digital board
  • Distributes the 24V from the power connector
  • Routes data and control signals between the ASIC on the carrier and the FPGA on the digital board
External power supply
  • Should be on the bottom board (digital) because a pigtail is connected to it that is attached to the outside shell
    • If if was on the top board (analog) there's a risk of damaging the ASICs and their wirebonds on the carrier
Optical transceiver
  • Same as for the power connector
  • Place close to FPGA due to 25 Gbit/s signals

  • FPGA intercommunication
  • Co-design with the data reduction pipeline
  • DFX for streaming pre-processing and eventually microAI, reusable building blocks

Cooling block

Current cooling blockUpdated cooling block

The photo below shows the current cooling block designs (straight and angled), which is for a 30x6 SEAM/SEAF connector between analog and digital board.

The screenshot below shows that a 40x6 SEAM/SEAF connector can fit by extending the cutout in the cooling block at the bottom without interfering with the pipe. Orange lines are the outline of the cooling block and the pipes in it.

The new connector is 10*1.27 = 12.7 mm longer.
