Proton Calorimetry/Meetings/2020/10/21

Minutes for UCL Proton Calorimetry Meetings, 21 October

Raffaella Radogna, Saad Shaikh, Fern Pannell

Successfully ported FPGA design to Nexys video.
- Immediate minor improvement through built-in dedicated UART port on board, PMOD-USB adaptor no longer needed.
- Will investigate ways to remotely set FSR and integration time without reconfiguration, latter will be more tricky.
Started investigating full USB 2.0 interface.
- Using this tutorial.
- Tutorial works but speed is slow – currently in touch with author who has suggested next steps.
Will visit UCL on 23/10/20 for further photodiode testing with Raffy.
Will be on holiday week of 26th Oct.
