- CMSTK Module Qualification -



This is an analysis program for a simple standard qualification of a module but can also be used to qualify an hybrid. It is meant to allow qualification for Express line. It will be later included in the testing program directly, where DB information will be loaded.

Version 0 (19/3/2002)


The analysis program needs: - 2 or more input data files - 1 configuration file and as output give a summary file (see Results directory) and several plots (see Plots directory)

Installation

The program runs with Root3.01 or later versions. All files from Program directory has to be copied. Data files can be in any directory. "ConfigurationTest.dat" has to be edited to enter some informations (see "Data file")

Data files

Pedestals, noise, calibration pulse shape data have to be taken, both in peak and deconvolution mode, without reset on, and with the inverting stage on. Other settings of the APV should be "standard". At the moment the "standard" value are those given as default values by the testing program. Right now the analysis program is working only with the results files given by the CMS-like setup using HybriDialog testing program but in future it will work also for ARC setup output files.

Configuration file

It should be resident on the directory of the program. One as to specify the directory where to find the input files, the name of the input files, the number of chips, the cut method and the cut values. Cut methods: 1 = cuts in chip average value percentage 2 = cuts in number of sigma from the chip average value 3 = cuts in absolute values (ADC) Cuts are enabled on : Pedestal, Noise, Raw noise and on Calibration The cuts should not be changed for standard qualification. Right now "standard" cuts should be : Cut method: Pedestal: 1 low .1 high .1 (+-10% cut) RNoise: 1 low .2 high .2 (+-20% cut) Noise: 1 low .2 high .2 (+-20% cut) Calibration: 1 low .2 high .1 (-20%,+10% cut)

HybriDialog specific

Using HybridDialog 2 files are needed: - file1 should contain the all the data taken in Peak mode - file2 as file1 but in Dec mode
