1. Introduction

1.1 The CAEN Universal Multichannel Power Supply System

The SY 1527 system is the fully equipped, large scale experiment version of a new line of power supply systems which represent CAEN's latest proposal in the matter of High Voltage and Low Voltage Power Supplying. This system outlines a completely new approach to power generation and distribution by allowing to house, in the same mainframe, a wide range of boards with different functions, such as High/Low Voltage boards, generic I/O boards (temperature, pressure monitors, etc.) and branch controllers, where the latter are used to control other remote generators and distributors.

Modularity, flexibility and reliability are the key-points of its design, enabling this module to meet the requirements of a wide range of experimental conditions. The latter range from those of LHC experiments, in which the features of this model find prior application, to those of other less challenging, but still demanding, High Energy Physics experiments.

The mainframe is housed in a 19"-wide, 8U-high euro-mechanics rack and hosts four main sections: - the Board Section, with 16 slots to house boards, distributors and branch controllers; - the Fan Tray Section, housing 6 fans disposed on two rows; - the Power Supply Section, which consists of the primary power supply and up to 3 power supply units; - the CPU and Front Panel Section which includes all interface facilities.

The User interface features the usual friendliness of the previous CAEN systems which now also includes a 7.7" colour LCD. A wide choice of interface facilities provides full communication compatibility with the previous systems and the possibility of controlling heterogeneous external devices.

Modularity has been one of the leading criteria in the design and development of the system: both the Power Supply Section and the Board Section are completely modular. The Power Supply Section allows different configurations with up to 3 power supply units per mainframe (up to 2250 W), while the Board Section can house up to 16 boards able to fulfil different functions. A new line of boards and distributors, analogous with those available for the SY527 system, and a set of branch controllers has been specially developed for this new system. The minimum system configuration consists of the primary power supply, one Power Supply Unit and one board. The concept of modularity has been extended up to the possibility of arranging ‘clusters’ constituted by one ‘intelligent’ SY1527 system able to drive other ‘non-intelligent’ systems, i.e. systems without CPU (to be implemented). The connections among the systems constituting the cluster are realised through a new CAEN interface, the Local Net.

The extreme flexibility of the system, which allows to house indifferently, inside the same mainframe, boards with different functions, is further enhanced by the possibility of developing ad-hoc boards and even complete custom peripheral systems. The latter, actually, can be designed specifically for on-detector installation. All the custom

electronics can be anyway remotely controlled by single boards which are inserted in the SY 1527 mainframe and act as branch controllers.

Fast, accurate set-up and monitoring of system parameters (14-bit resolution on Voltages and Currents with standard boards) is available for each branch controller thanks to the use of one microprocessor per slot. All the operational parameters are stored in a non- volatile memory (EEPROM) to be still available after Power-Off. The parameters can be controlled either via CAEN traditional built-in links (RS232, H.S. CAENET) or via CERN- approved Fieldbuses or via Ethernet (TCP/IP). Programmable handling of parameters and errors is available as well.

Channel trip control on other crates is performed via four external differential trip lines. A sophisticated trip handling via software allows to control and correlate trip conditions on the channels of the crate as well as of other crates connected to it.

Live insertion and extraction of the boards, which reduces the down time of the global system, and easy access to the computing core and peripherals of the system completes the system flexibility.

Easy interfacing is another key-point of the SY1527 system. Thanks to the H.S. CAENET interface, the system ensures full communication compatibility with the previous models. Besides the RS232 interface and Ethernet (TCP/IP) provided with the standard version of the system, CAN-bus can be furnished on request, as well as special boards featuring optical links for remote communications. Enhanced software programming features a unified command set independent from the interface used to communicate with the system. The Power Supply Section and Board Section can be externally synchronised via front panel connectors.

Secure access to the system via Intranet is foreseen together with a multilevel management of custom User's profiles. In particular, three different access levels have been implemented: Guest, User and Administrator, each of which with password protection.

Handy maintenance and upgrading, which constitute a major issue in the reliability of a system, are further guaranteed by the possibility of accessing and servicing the system via network facilities. Actually, Telnet and WWW access facilities allow remote debugging and technical support of the system, including future firmware upgrading.

2. Mod. A 1520P High Voltage Board

2.1 Overview

The Mod. A1520 P has been specially designed to meet the strict performance requirements for powering the APDs of CMS ECAL; thanks to a careful layout and the use of selected components, 20 mV voltage regulation stability, less than 20 mV pp noise and 1 ppm/°C thermal stability has been achieved.

2.2 Functional description

The Model A1520 P1 is a SY1527 System double-width board which houses 12 positive HV channels; each output channel has an independent floating ground. The output voltage can be programmed and monitored in the range 0  +500 V with 16 bit resolution (10 mV steps). If the output voltage differs from the programmed value by more than 15 V, the channel is signalled to be either in OVERVOLTAGE or UNDERVOLTAGE condition. Moreover, for each channel, a voltage protection limit SVMAX can be fixed via software with 1 V resolution and the output voltage can not be programmed beyond this value. All output channels are provided with Remote Sensing Lines to compensate for the voltage drop over the cables.

The HV RAMP-UP and RAMP-DOWN rates may be selected independently for each channel in the range 1 50 V/s in 1 V/s steps.

For each channel, it is also possible to set an output current limit in the range 0  15 mA (25 nA steps). The output current is monitored with 25 nA resolution; if a channel tries to draw a current larger than its programmed limit it is signalled to be in OVERCURRENT condition; the SY 1527 system detects this state as a fault and reacts according to the setting of the TRIP parameter, namely:

1) TRIP=infinite ( = 1000 s)

If the maximum output current value is reached the channel behaves like a constant current generator.

2) TRIP=finite (< 1000 s)

The output current is permitted to equal the limit value only for programmed time interval and then is switched off at the selected RAMP-DOWN speed. The TRIP time (i.e. the maximum time an OVERCURRENT condition is allowed to last) can be programmed in 0.1 s steps. If a RESET, INTERLOCK or KILL command is issued to the board, all channels are switched off at the selected RAMP-DOWN speed.

1 The board version which actually supplies the APDs of CMS ECAL features 9 channels instead of 12 and is encoded as A1520 PE. Such issue shares all the other functional characteristics with the standard A1520 P.

3.3 Installation

The Mod. A 1520P is a double-width board (10 TE-wide) which can be inserted in any slot of the SY 1527 crate. At power ON the SY 1527 system processor will scan all the slots in the crate to find out where the module is plugged and what kind of module it is. For correct operation it is recommended to turn off the SY1527 crate before the board’s insertion/extraction, although insertion/extraction in/from a powered crate does not damage the board’s circuitry.

4. Operating modes

The Mod. A 1520P can be controlled, either locally or remotely, through the SY 1527 software interface. For details on SY 1527 system operation, please refer to the User's Manual of this product. The following sections contain a description of commands available for the board control and status monitoring.

ATTENTION

THE MOD. A 1520P BOARD REQUIRES SY 1527 FIRMWARE VERSION 1.09.04 OR LATER

4.1 Output control and monitoring

For each output channel, it is possible, through the SY 1527 system, to perform the following operations:

 Assign to channel a symbolic name  Set output voltage (VSET)  Set max. output current (ISET)  Set output voltage software limit (SVMAX)  Set voltage ramp-up speed (RAMP-UP)  Set voltage ramp-down speed (RAMP-DOWN)  Set TRIP parameter  ON/OFF POWER ENABLE option  Switch channel ON/OFF  Monitor output voltage (VMON)  Monitor output current (IMON)  Monitor channel status  Null the IMON offset (IMONOFFSET), see § 4.5  Compensate for drift due to Temeprature variations (T_DRIFT), see § 4.4

If the POWER ENABLE option is ON (default setting), the channel is intrinsically ON (it is supplied): by switching it ON/OFF (ON/OFF parameter), the output voltage can be either provided or not. If the POWER ENABLE option is OFF, the channel is intrinsically OFF (it is not supplied): the output voltage cannot be provided in any case (whatever the ON/OFF parameter setting); this option can be useful to cut-off one channel from the rest of the board, while the other ones keep on working.

The following messages may be returned by the SY 1527 when monitoring the channel status:

 OFF (channel turned OFF)  RUP (channel ramping up)  RDWN (channel ramping down)  OVC (channel in OVERCURRENT condition)  OVV (channel in OVERVOLTAGE condition)  UNV (channel in UNDERVOLTAGE condition)  EXTTRIP (channel OFF due to external TRIP line signal)  INTTRIP (channel OFF due to internal OVERCURRENT condition)  EXT_DIS (channel disabled by board INTERLOCK protection)

Moreover it is possible to monitor board temperature and to check board status; the following messages may be returned by the SY 1527 when monitoring the board status:

 UNDER_TEMP (board temperature < 5°C )  OVER_TEMP (board temperature > 65°C)

4.2 Voltage sensing

All output channels have a Remote Sensing Line to compensate for the voltage drop over the cable. Voltage is monitored directly at the load by an high input impedance differential amplifier; the voltage sensing circuit is schematically illustrated in the figure below.

4.3 Interlock

The board is provided with an INTERLOCK system which switches OFF simultaneously all the channels if the INTERLOCK contact is removed; there are various INTERLOCK options which can be selected by means of two PCB jumpers (see Fig. 2.5):

a) if J2 is inserted (J1 not inserted), INTERLOCK is disabled and the green front panel LED is always lit.

b) if J1 is inserted (J2 not inserted), the IINT and IEXT pin of the HV OUTPUT cable connector should be short-circuited; in this case if the cable connector is unplugged the output channels are immediately turned OFF and the green LED is switched off. c) If no jumper is inserted, the green LED doesn't light on and the board is disabled until the LEMO INTERLOCK input is shorted to ground.

4.4 Temperature drift compensation

The channels are provided with an automatic compensation function for voltage drift due to temperature variations. The User must set the T_DRIFT parameter with the expected drift2 (mV/°C), eventually obtained from thermal chamber tests (default value is 0).

4.5 IMON offset nulling

The IMONOFFSET parameter can be set either to ABS (absolute) or to REL (relative). The default setting is ABS, which means that IMON=0 is considered as the IMON baseline. When the User switches to REL, the IMON value present on the channel is taken as baseline from that moment on.

4.6 Transparent Mode access

The communication with the board can take place in “Transparent Mode” (from the System’s Main menu), which is password protected; this allows to access the “Calibration Mode”, which can be either “Manual” or “Automatic”. A mostly self-explanatory menu will guide the User through the calibration procedure.

2 Valid T_DRIFT values can be either positive or negative

5. T1520 P voltmeter board

The Mod. T1520 P 12-channel board has been issued for calibration purposes. It is provided with three 2 mm sockets (two for the voltage and one for the current) to be connected with the multimeter and two serial links (to be connected with the oscilloscope and with the multimeter respectively) on 9-pin DB connectors. Settings on the channels can be performed via 9 groups of jumpers placed on the board side (the group closest to the front panel is related to channel 0 and so on). The jumpers description is shown in Fig. 5.1.
