There is a broken connection in L1 UPLINK 02 in the ERF-SMA board or within the optoboard itself. Note that alignment is sensitive to polarity of TX connection (i.e. NP↔NP vs NP↔PN) but not to the RX connections.
ITkPixV1.1 Digital Quad
The ITkPixV1.1 digital quad can be read out in two different configurations, either interfaced through the PP0+Type 0 ring (more details of the hardware setup can be found on the ITkPixV1 quad module readout page).
Interface with ring + PP0
At present the full chain including PP0 and Type 0 ring cannot be read out using FELIX. The following channel mapping is used in the connectivity file. Chips 2 and 4 send data on power-up. Chip 1 has poor data transmission quality on the negative polarity side, but is not observed using the LBL adapter card indicating that this is a feature of the ring+PP0.
Mini-DP SMA Channel | Rx Lane | Chip ID | Chip Number |
---|---|---|---|
L0 | 3 | 0x15468 | 3 |
L1 | 2 | 0x15448 | 4 |
L2 | 1 | 0x15429 | 2 |
L3 | 0 | 0x15428 | 1 |
Interface with LBL adapter board
Testing using the following configuration files (set in the alias mconf_quad):
connectivity: /home/itkpix/YARRdev/configs_common/connectivity/20UPGR91101015/20UPGR91101015_L2_warm.json (same as used for YARR readout)
controller: /home/itkpix/YARRdev/configs_common/controller/felix_rd53b.json
The downlink differential signal polarity should not be inverted (i.e. P↔P and N↔N SMA connections between DP and Optoboard BOB), as this is only required due to the ring channel mapping. L3,L2,L1,L0 are connected to EFF-SMA board UPLINK 00,01,02,04. Before configuration, alignment bit is unstable on UPLINK 01 (chip 2) and always 0 for other channels, but after configuration all alignment bits are zero. This is similar behavior as observed with the PP0+Ring.
