The following timing diagram is generated by simulating MCE firmware using ModelsimTM, therefore, it does not include the analog circuit delays (DAC delay, RC filters, settling time, etc) into account.
Parameters used for this simulation:
| row_len | 100 |
| num_rows | 33 |
| sample_dly | 40 |
| sample_num | 10 |
| servo_mode | 3 |
| Address Card enbl_mux | 1 |
| Bias Card enbl_mux | 1 |
| RC firmware rev. | 5.1.2 |
| BC firmware rev. | 5.0.6 |
| AC firmware rev. | 5.0.3 |
| CC firmware rev. | 5.0.7 |
Note that Bias Card DACs (MAX5443) latch on CS’s low-to-high transition. Address Card DACs are clocked on the negative edge of the main clock.
Under Address Card section, both DAC_clk(0) and DAC_clk(32) are shown. This indicates that first, the previous row's DAC (32 in this case) is turned off and then the new DAC (0 in this case) is turned on. All Address-Card DACs are off for 2 clock cycles.
The coadd window takes the 4 clock cycles of ADC latency into account, i.e., When the coadd window is asserted at clock cycle 40 in the diagram above, the samples are stored starting clock cycle 44.
Bias Card DACs have ~400ns settling delay (see FULL-SCALE STEP RESPONSE on page 6 here, Address Card and Readout Card DACs have a settling delay of 11 ns.
