jump to: burning hot (urgent stuff)
- 9U crate power for KLM (Chris)
- revamp carrier revE5 to have generic x10 amplified 50 Ohm inputs
- get calibre running on new cadence server (gang got it working)
- complete more TJ Hooker assemblies
- install global foundries TSMC 250 nm design kit (done; but need to figure out total lack of transistors...; that was the wrong design kit)
- resurrect XRM laser signal chain
- finish design of XRM cooling + cooling flange and get parts machined
- finish design of XRM structure and get parts machined
- finish design of XRM electrical interface flange and get parts machined
- set up HPD so that it works just like the system at KEK (Oskar/Martin)
- get gigE TOP readout back together (light-tightening; FTSW connections; fiber connection; triggering scheme?) - or maybe switch to b2link
scalding hot / will soon be an emergency:
- get nsm2/css/gui interface to configure boardstacks working
- slow control monitoring for TOP (Oskar)
- re-tool TOP PS code to optionally not use the DDR (partially done)
- put together ldap/kerberos/nfs server on poweredge 2970 (just buy COTS; now need to choose ldap or windows domain controller)
- write code to get data from ADCs on carrier revE3/revE4 (SPI bit-banging code)
- precision time delay generator for TOP (can be part of master cal module?; Gerard might get this done for us; serializer + flip-flop)
- send reworked SCROD revB2 boards (one to Lynn, one to Vladimir, one to Kurtis, one to Luca, one to mza; poor yield)
- checkout example implementation from Nakao-san for b2l and b2tt firmware for spartan/virtex and come up with one for zynq
- look into getting NIM HV power supply working and shipped (Reed, Vihtori, Dmitri, James)
- ARM in-situ configuration of ASICs or config1slot.py (on hold for now?)
- install global foundries 130nm design kit and check whether RITCv2 opens without change in that kit
- archive designs for RITCv2, CSAv3, (IRSX?, HalfGraphv2?, CHAMP?) on new server (asking people for mosis project description text, fab/packaging cost, date of submission/receipt, what worked/didn't, how well it worked, etc to go in README file for each ASIC)
- answer Gerard's question about the HV test board
- make firmware block diagram for TOP(/XRM/etc)
- install global foundries TSMC 90 nm (on hold until need comes up)
will have outpost on Titan with a Starbucks ("Macchiato with a shot of methane, please!") before I get back to these:
- design circuit to allow for AC-coupled JTAG, transparent to the digilent/xilinx programmer
- look into getting display case for outside the door, and then get Roy to put it up (power/ethernet?)
- update all reference CAM documents to have correct silkscreen/reference designator and soldermask oversizing (use 0.0508 (2 mil) soldermask oversize relative to pad)
- asssemble something through http://www.myropcb.com to see if they're any good, ditto Electro-Connect Inc electroconnectinc.com, Cascade Systems Technology
- many: add sections of cableways to WAT214 and possibly have them go into WAT214B; whatever way we do this, we need to remove the cabletrays from the WAT216 hallway
- many: get some finer pitch scmartboards/surfboards (newark/roth elektronik has some; also adafruit)
- take radiation safety refresher course online (here) once a year (takes ~10 minutes to read notices and take quiz)
- take hazardous waste generator training once a year
- update inventory spreadsheet (by 2016-09)
- many: buy brother label tape
- multiple: submit paperwork for reimbursements
- IDLAB: mop floor (bought swiffers for this)
- IDLAB: run roomba on floors (have to pick stuff up off of floor before doing this)
- IDLAB: scrub floor of clean room (ask Hayakawa-san what he does for this)
- break down cardboard boxes
shipped these problems to other people:
stuff to spend money on
announcements:
- switch to solidworks 2015
- switch to PADS VX.2.2
