B wheel Board Gain
Differences

Motivation
• Gain differences have been observed for a number of B wheel
boards from ALGEN.
• Smallest Division ASD ASIC
• Typical - Board or DTMROC
Two boards have been examined in detail.

for an internal pulser setting of 5 DAC counts for
each channel shown.
This helps eliminated offsets in data among channels

Low Gain Channels are ~10% lower for External pulser and ~25% lower
for the Internal pulser when measured at BLR monitor output.
Gain is constant down to ~1fC. Low Gain channels do not present risk
that BLR will operate in a highly NL range for near threshold signals.
Using the same DTMROC to compare measurements of the whole signal
processing chain indicate only a small gain difference between Low Gain
and Typical ASDBLR boards. Examination of several chips has shown
that the gain difference is relatively constant implying a batch difference.
Pulse shapes observed at the BLR output for low gain and typical chips
are qualitatively the same from 2fC to 80fC of injected charge.
The maximum test pulse range is only about 12fC. Setting the
DTMROC BLR bias resistor to a smaller value would increase this range.
Low Gain and Typical ASD’s exhibit nearly identical test pulse shapes as
observed at the Test pulse input to the ASDBLR.
