Electronic Status

 

All of the boards, power supplies and VME enclosures for the array controller have been fabricated. Several copies of the 1 Gigabit/sec fiber link card have been delivered by EDT. As of 6/9/99 we are designing the analog electronics (bias boars and preamplifier) along with the chip mount fan-out board. Rockwell is promising delivery of a bonded 2048x2048 MUX by late July. We plan to integrate and test the array controller beginning in August of 1999.
