https://docs.google.com/document/d/1sYigAkFCmJEWc_ibXQEzfHkyYoaF8dK-/edit Email from Zisis: We started a document as a kind of notebook to keep track of our discussions and decisions. (Obviously, a more formal technical report should follow sometime in 2026.) Aram is about to send the Baby BCAL amp/sum boards to be constructed (PED funds), These will have output compatible with FADCs/CODA. A following board design could interface with Gabor’s new interface board, or with modifications to HGCROC. That would be the BIC Board under PED funds. These will inform us towards the Pre-production boards later in 2026. For now, can you please review this above document before our Tuesday morning meeting? Please populate it with thoughts (how you see the connections happening), specifics (drawings, connector types from the first link folders), and pros and cons where there are options (eg voltage vs current input to HGCROC). Then we can discuss it on Tuesday.

What do we need for which beam test. Let's discuss and make sure that we are all on the same page with requirements and deadlines for delivery.
