Front-end components are ASICs and custom assembly. VCSEL, fiber, ORx identification, and the back-end development benefit from the Versatile Link common project. ASICs are based on 0.25 µm SOS CMOS.

ASIC development

Steps from LOCs1 of 5 Gbps to LOCsx, the 10 Gbps version: Initially thought that we would move
from LOCs1 to LOCs6. Difficulties were found in the 5 GHz
clock fan-out over the whole chip of the size of about 2 mm × 6 mm. This is limited by the GC process (0.5 µm trace) we have evaluated to be rad-tol, and are used in the LOCs1 development.
A faster PC process (still 0.25 µm, but also 0.25 µm trace) will come out April 2011, and 0.18 µm later part of 2011. Either may get us back to the LOCs6 concept if we so choose at that time.
We now propose to step back to LOCs2: two serializing units with one LC PLL clock in a chip.
We will then need to move the switch for the redundancy channel into the interface chip, in front of the LOCs2 chip.

We are working on the fast (CML) parts in this design. They are the shapes in orange: the clock buffer, the LC VCO, the first stage Div2, the last stage 2:1 MUX, and the CML driver.
We also realized that with the GC process, we may only push up to 8 Gbps (ss corner, 85C). We will rely on the new PC process and the 180 nm feature size to get us to 10 Gbps.
New irradiation tests will be needed on the new processes.

ASIC next steps
We are still working on the CML 2:1 multiplexer.
We need to fine tune the LC VCO. After that an overall and optimized CML
circuits layout will be carried out. Follow that will be the CMOS circuits part
and overall timing adjustment. So far all the design is based on the GC
process. We will need to decide on whether we prototype the GC design, or move to the PC design.

Optical interface and the back-end
The form factor of this optical interface is not decided. Many factors need to be considered:
System reliability. Possible failure modes. Real state on the FEB front panel. Ease of installation.
Experience in the Versatile Link project is very valuable. The development of OTx (LDD identification or ASIC
design, mechanical packaging) has started (BNL, SMU). Support has been requested in the new DOE generic detector development program.
The VCSEL and fiber have been identified in the Versatile Link project.
The link back-end has been developed in the Versatile Link project, or at least a similar design can be adapted.

Conclusions and thoughts
J. Ye, SMU Physics Lar Week Munich April 2011 15
The LOC ASIC development is progressing as planned. A lot of details are not reported here. We would like to call for a review after we have the post layout simulation results on all the CML circuits.
We benefit from developments in the Versatile Link project in the optical link system spec development, the optical interface (the optical transmitter and receiver, the fiber and connector) development, as well as the back-end FPGA evaluation,.
We would like to start system level discussions with the link’s up- and down-stream electronics, or on a higher level, the discussion about the design and demo of the FEB2 and the ROD2.
