Revision as of 14:32, 10 March 2021

Simon Jolly, Raffaella Radogna, Saad Shaikh, Fern Pannell

Tested DDC232 daisy-chain with resistors, experimental runs listed here.
- Will send another email to Clive and Izzat to ask for help.
- Raffy to get in touch with Marko to get a quote on new DDC232 boards made.
Added new details to the DDC232 page, with latest version of FTDI code.
FTDI code works on Raspberry Pi, with only a few changes to compile command.
- ftdi_tcioflush function not found, but older deprecated version can be used instead.
- Pi is slow, with average time between measurements at about 650us instead of 180us.
- Will benchmark performance of "minimal" version of FTDI code, where data is collected but not processed.
- Will also benchmark performance of "full" and "minimal" versions of FTDI code on Windows.
Will compare channel noise of single DDC232 board with alternate photodiodes replaced with resistors.
Will start investigating non-ROOT-based fit.
- Raffy has suggested to use GNU scientific library.
Working on HEP School problems this week.
