Contents
Needed for CD-3 May 2008
- Functional design of timing distribution.
- Functional design of energy-sum trigger.
- Full DAQ functional design including trigger distribution.
- 80% electronics design for all trigger and DAQ hardware. N.B. circuit layouts and component choice generally not required. Prototypes only needed to demonstrate proof-of-principle of speculative ideas.
- front-end timing distribution.
- trigger creation and distribution.
- TI board.
- TS board.
- Preliminary libraries for reading out custom boards (F1TDC, FADC, etc).
- Prototypes of major CODA 3 components: ROC, EMU, ER, and run control.
- n.b. already have cMsg, ET, EVIO, etc.
- Demonstrate 200 kHz triggering and pipeline readout in single crate
- Understanding of event size, backplane and network bandwidths, etc.
- Choice of controls framework and basic implementation plan.
DAQ Milestones
The full DAQ (approximately 80 full crates) must be ready for testing the complete detector with cosmic or pulser triggers by 1Q FY 2014. First beam to the hall is expected in 4Q FY 2014, with low-rate production data taking expected to start in 4Q FY 2015. High-rate production data taking may start as early as 4Q FY 2016, assuming funds are available to upgrade the detector.

DAQ Detector Needs
DAQ systems of various sorts will be needed during detector development, construction, and checkout. Below, "parallel" means that parallel or staged event building is needed. "Small" means four crates or less, and "large" means more than four crates. In general, parallel readout is only needed at very high rates, where a single network connection cannot handle all the data.
- Single-crate DAQ systems are needed now (Jul-2007).
- Small systems will be needed by Oct 2008.
- Single-crate with trigger/timing needed for FCAL test Summer 2008
- Large systems will be needed by Oct 2010.
- Parallel, large systems will be needed by Oct 2011.
In all cases the readout crates may be full.
(Elton suggests creating a table of configurations needed...ejw, 14-Aug-2007)
