Logarithmic normalizationLogarithmic normalization

A spectral line is selected, compressed by a logarithmic amplifier, filtered and applied to a differential amplifier.

The position response is Pos. [log(A/B)] = [log(A)-log(B)] (Vout)

where Vout is the voltage difference between the log-amp outputs

New generation circuits use several cascaded limiting amplifiers, with fix gain and wide bandwidth. Full wave rms detectors are applied among each stage and by summing theirs output signals, a good approximation to a logarithmic transfer function is obtained.Input dynamic range : >90 dBInput noise: < 1.5 nV/HzNon conformance lin.: < 0.3 dBLimiter Bandwidth: D.C. to >2 GHzVideo Bandwidth: D.C. to 30 MHz

Digitization & AcquisitionDigitization & Acquisition

Log-amp signals (BW < 4 MHz) are send to the auxiliary buildings, via coaxial cables

A modified version of MoposMopos digitizer, with integrator and 14 bit ADC

To improve S/N ratio two integration times are implemented (100 ns and 1 s)

Acquisition is identical to Mopos Mopos system (VME power PC & PMC MACI)

ConclusionsConclusions

A special effort has been done to reduce the cost as much as possibleInvestment per channel still extremely low

cables and digital electronics & services represent the largest part of the budget (~78%)

Schedule: TT2 line will be put into operation current 2001 and TT10 after 2001/02 shut-down
