View source for Special Meeting LV Cable Strategy Summary 9/15/21

PARTICIPANTS: Fernando, Bogdan, Carlos, Emmanuel, Vladimir, Tanja


'''DISCUSSION LOW VOLTAGE STRATEGY'''

* Choice of cables

:* Size of cables: 22 AWG (thicker cable) instead of 24 AWG?
::* worth looking into if there is a solution that offers lower resistivity
::* however, need to pay attention to size of connectors that fit on board, etc. 
::* Is there a AWG available to handle one column?

:* '''Action Items:'''
::* Review calculation and see what cable + connector combination would be possible
::* Fernando provide an example of a cable that would work - Orsay team can then optimize 

* Option of Voltage stabilizer/regulator
:* would have additional power dissipation but provides stabilization

:* obtaining negative regulators may be challenging

:* if components available then good thing to so (as long as power dissipation not an issue)

:* Review of power consumption:
::* (optional) stabilizer power consumption ~<20mW (for +- means ~40mW)
::* (need) one amplifier dissipates ~120mW
::* (need) one divider disspates ~500mW - defines cooling capacity
::* total power dissipation increases to ~660mW (originally assumed ~500mW cooling capacity)

:* '''Action item:'''
:::* Is cooling capacity sufficient to handle LV? - 660mV instead of 500mW --> need to test

'''HV DIVIDERS'''

* Plan final tests next week
::* '''Action Item:''' Vladimir check setup on Monday

* Final Layout 

* Production


'''NEXT MEETING: WEDNESDAY 22 SEPTEMBER AT 10:00AM ET'''
