This page describes the procedure to test the Bus Backplane unit of an MCE.
Test Setup
(This page is excerpts from the following document: BB PWB Test (SC2_TST_S586_801) 2009-10-22-MA.doc)
This test needs to be performed when the unit under test is installed in MCE sub-rack and wired up to the 34-pin Winchester connector. The subrack is initially empty.
Make sure this subrack and the unit under test are recorded in: http://e-mode.phas.ubc.ca/intmcewiki/index.php/MCE_Subrack_Index
Then enter test results in http://e-mode.phas.ubc.ca/intmcewiki/index.php/CBB-0xx where CBB-0xx is the serial number of the unit-under test.
Test results prior to May 2011 can be found on: Z:\public_html\sc2mce\system\bus_bp\test-results
Power-rail test
- Insert a proven Power Supply Assembly (PSA) into its slot and make sure it mates well with the 34-pin Winchester connector
- Connect the PSA to an external ACDCCU
- Power up the otherwise empty sub-rack
- Measure the voltages at the far end of the power lines (rails) and check if all the measured values fall within 20% of the acceptable values as follows:
Vah = 10V -Va = -6.2V +Va = 6.2V Vcore = 3V Vlvd = 4.8V Note: This test only verifies that the power distribution of the Bus Back-plane is correct. All other functionality will be tested during the pre-shipment system test.
JTAG Test
Populate the subrack with all cards. Plug in a USB Blaster to the the JTAG connector on the front panel of the clock card. Run Quartus and perform an Auto Detect. If auto-detect is successful, then the test has passed.
Repeat test with only the Clock Card installed to test the JTAG chain buffers on the backplane.
LVDS receive/transmit Test
Tested during system test.
