Dear Satoshi and Zhangbu,
Project is currently collecting information about QA for each subsystem of ePIC. So from ToF consortium may can you please provide a quick list of components associated with ToF that are subject to quality control ? As an example I suppose each of the sensor for ToF will first undergo some sort of QA before using it for final ToF. Same will be probably for ASICS and of course there will be more components of ToF which will first undergo Quality Control before being used for final ToF assembly. If you can provide us ONLY the list of those items in next two weeks that will helpful. Later (possibly before CD2 early next year) one has to write a detail documentation on QA for each ToF components.
Thanks,
Sourav
List:
AC-LGAD sensors:
QA long-term and stress-test reliability studies of LGADs as a stepping-stone towards studies on AC-LGADs
For both sensors and readout chips, it is imperative to evaluate the yield of the test productions to adjust the final production orders. The QA plans to evaluate the yield of the sensor productions are as follows: each produced sensor will be tested in the laboratory in a probe station with simple current over voltage (IV) and capacitance over voltage (CV) tests
ASIC: (subsystems or project?)
To evaluate the yield of the chip (EICROC, FCFD) productions, a sample of chips (ALL CHIPS?) from each batch will be tested and probed for homogeneity in all the channels using a calibration input. All channels have to be within required homogeneity.
service and assembly:
Once the state of sensors, readout chips, and flex is advanced, a fully loaded demonstrator stave is envisioned. The mounting procedure will already be tested during the assembly of the thermomechanical demonstrator. The full demonstrator will then be tested with radioactive sources in laboratory or at test beams
