Progress Report

O. Zorba

CALICE 12/05/2004

• ISE 6.2 and ChipScope Pro 6.2 licenses arrived during the 1st week of May.

•LINKARRAY code has been incorporated (requires testing with CERC board).

•ADC readout order has been modified to reflect the VFE channels.

•LM82 I2C code integration has been investigated. (The code can be integrated into the current code with little effort).

•VFE in-line test board design.

•DAC Code testing – A number of slightly modified designs have been created to investigate the unexpected behaviour.
