Our first large area detector (2Mpx, 5kHz).  Total data volume 2Mpx*5kHz*2bytes/px=20GB/s.  5 tiles in each quad.  Each tile is 4 asics.  Each ASICs is 144*192*4 (4 is number of asics).  

Issues

possible fiber configurations:

• 4 nodes: 1 quad per node (5GB/s)
• 8 nodes: 2 or 3 tiles per node
• 10 nodes: 2 tiles per node
• 20 nodes: 1 tile per node

Is a segment a tile? or a set of tiles (e.g. 2 or 3)?

Two ideas: segments, and "unit cell".  Should those ideas be identical?

Would make my brain hurt the least if we made a tile a segment (that's been our previous approach)

Perhaps we should mock-up the epixhr segment idea in advance using the kcuSim detector.

The configuration is only done one node.  But we can make sure that the configuration object is present on all the relevant nodes (and in the xtc).

Schedule

(on Dec. 19, 2022) Sometime in February/March a prototype with 3 tiles will be released (could generate fake data for missing panels for 1 quad).  Full detector: summer?
