Full list of desired connections on FIB:
- Serial powering (from Control Room):
- CB-to-FIB:
- 3 x diff pair for FPC S/Cs (6 wires).
- VTRx+ power (2V5 domains could be supplied by 1 source, GND could be shared for all domains) (3-6 wires).
- 1V2 Tx domian (VCCT1V2).
- 2V5 Tx domain (VCCT2V5).
- 2V5 Rx domain (VCCR2V5).
- GND needed.
- VTRx+ I2C (share GND with power domains?) (2-3 wires).
- Laser driver controls (2 wires).
- RSSI (Rx current monitor) (1 wire).
- VTRx+ thermistor (2 wires).
- Voltage sense (for VTRx+ domains) (3-4 wires).
- 1V2 domain.
- Shared or separate 2V5 domains?
- GND sense (to account for V-shift on both rails).
2 SP wires needed.
Minimum of 19 wires (up to 24) between CB and FIB.
- Minimum only includes 1 x GND wire (we probably want more)!
The VTRx+ has 25 pins that would be fed to the CB (+2pins/fibre=10 and 5N/C on a 40pin connector). See page9 of https://edms.cern.ch/ui/file/1719329/1/VTRxPlus_spec.pdf.
- 12 GND pins.
- 2 pins/voltage domain (6 pins total).
