A VFAT board from CERN is evaluated for use as a readout board to convert the GEM output analog signal to a digital signal.
Breakout box specs (preliminary)
- 6 inputs for ~1m ribbon cables from VFAT modules
- 3-bit DIP switch to select I2C address range for each VFAT
- Soft reset for each VFAT controlled via I2C expander chip
- Shared hard reset line from Gumstix
- Scan Mode switch
- ScanIn connector (cascaded)
- ScanOut connector (cascaded)
- RJ45 port to gumstix box containing I2C and other signals:
- Power (3.3 or 2.5V)
- Ground
