Tests of hybrids circuits for the CMS tracker : FHIT project
Front end Hybrid Industrial Tester (FHIT)
In collaboration with the RWTH Aachen III university and the IReS in Strasbourg, we are in charge of developping a tester for Front End Hybrids (FEH). This device will be able to perform automatically and quickly (about 1 min) a full industrial test which consist in an connectivity test, an electrical and a functional test. The first two tests are performed by the FHIT board itself (firmware level) while the functional test is performed by the ARC board, inside the FHIT box, through a C++ developped software. This C++ code comes from ARCS (RWTH Aachen) and is interfaced through a LabVIEW software. This software, called FHITS, allows a fully automatic use of FHIT, with features like power supply automatic control, barcode scanner reading and result files creation.

updates :
FHITS Version 1.4 (LabVIEW only): [26/03/03]
- FHIT_PowerSupply2.vi has been modified, in order to set
- the current limit to 3.0 A (previously 2.6 A)
- the power supply voltage to 5.09 V (previously 5 V)
(system:remote;*rst;*cls;:apply P25V,12.0,0.2;apply N25V,-5.0,0.2;apply P6V,5.09,3;output on;)
- Industrial_test.vi has been modified
- there is a new vi (getCurrentPath.vi) aiming at selecting the current path either in .vi or .exe mode, in order to find the path of 'FHIT_PedNoi.dat' file.
(see 1[0..2] -> loop -> true -> 1[0..1] -> 0[0..1] -> False -> 2 [0..2] -> True "Reading the file with data from FT subtests" ) The code is neater and more efficient.
FHITS Version 1.41 (LabVIEW only): [02/04/03]
- FHIT_PowerSupply2.vi has been modified, in order to set
- the current limit to 3.4 A (previously 3.0 A)
- Industrial_test.vi has been modified
- The error from General parameter on FHIT 2 (dual-FHIT setup) has been fixed.
FHITS Version 1.42 (LabVIEW only): [end 05/03] available at CERN only
- There are some modification to allow non serial port barcode scanner compatibility
FHITS Version 1.43 (LabVIEW only): [end 06/03]
