Motivation

  • to have high resolution, high channel

density, low cost

  • to replace ASIC-HPTDCs from CERN
  • to provide solutions for different

requirements e.g. higher resolution, zero dead time

  • to provide different measurement

capabilities, e.g. ToF, Charge

  • to use in different detectors for different

experiments

TDC in FPGA

Tapped Delay Line Method

  • Tapped delay line is used for fine

time measurements – suits well with the FPGA architecture

  • Delay elements are realised by LUTs
  • Fast carry chain structure forms the

delay line

  • Registers are used to sample the

delay line

Laboratory Test Results

Time resolution test Mean measurement test

  • Time difference measured between 2

channels

  • Δt = (tcoarse1- tcoarse2) - (tfine1- tfine2)
  • RMS measured: 10.34 ps against the

same clock

  • Resolution: 10.34 ps / √2 = 7.3 ps RMS

Time difference between two measurements

Conclusion & Outlook

  • Multi-Purpose TDC in FPGA chip has been developed
  • The first board has been tested with real beam for the FIRST time!
  • For test purposes 6 channels were used
  • Time data was taken successfully with the electronics prototype
  • Time distribution and correlation information of the pixels are consistent with the
  • scilloscope
  • For more tests the TDC will be tested in the next Hades beam time during April

and DIRC prototype beam time in May

  • More time information will be collected (rising and falling edges – ToT – of the

signals)

  • More channels will be implemented

Wave Union Launcher

  • More than one delay line is necessary

in order to reduce the effect of wide bins

  • Wave union launcher is implemented
  • Bin widths & non-linearities are

reduced

  • More virtual bins
  • Narrower bins
  • Homogeneous bin

distribution

Statistical Error & Resolution

  • Time difference measured between 2

channels

  • Δt = (tcoarse1- tcoarse2) - (tfine1- tfine2)
  • RMS measured: 10.34 ps

against same clock

  • Resolution: 10.34 ps / √2 = 7.3 ps
  • Effect of 2 transitions:

14.82 ps / 10.34 ps = 1.43 factor
