Connector for SBND boards SBND test frame
About 40 seconds to scan a frequency range of 45 Hz (32 wires in parallel)
Example of one (of 32) signals measured simultaneously in 40 seconds
Measurements taken in the Y-plane wires of the SBND test frame: note that the signal of the two wire segments with slightly different lengths (65.5 cm and 67.5 cm) are visible

Towards applying in DUNE APAs
- In the next slides we will assume that it is early
enough to still make some modifications to the boards which would greatly benefit the overall project à it has the potential to significantly speed up the production procedure
- We had a first look at possible modifications; these
should be doable, but would need some input from
- ther experts and the Consortium (not a Manchester
- nly task).
- We will need to be relatively fast at this point to
make it for TDR.
Design considerations (wire-bonding board): PCB copper clearance/creepage
- Which standard for PCB
clearance and creepage?
- IPC-2221B (Generic
Standard on. Printed Board Design): 500V = 2.5mm
- Some examples of the
current issues:
- Passthrough Mil-Max pins
clearance on X-Plane board, etc.
- Approx. 0.6mm = 120V
- Could realign so connecting
passthrough pins are stacked vertically and stagger the arrangement.
X plane - Worst case V / U plane G plane – Not possible in current design (4-wires in parallel)
- Which standard for PCB
clearance and creepage?
- IPC-2221B: 500V = 2.5mm
- Some examples of the
current issues:
- V-plane connector on
CR_Board (as no capacitors to block DC)
- Clearance 0.3mm = 60V
- Need larger pitch / single row
connector (do we have space?)
- U / X plane has capacitors,
so only AC component present at connector
Connection here U plane from the back side of the board (possible?)
Design considerations (CR boards): PCB copper clearance / creepage
X / V / U
APA Signal readout channels
Design considerations: Connectivity
- Need to be able to connect before
the capacitor on planes with RC components
- Would require additional connector
- n the RC board or a board that can
piggyback on the existing Mil-Max pins
- Pogo-pins are an option for this

Conclusions
- We have designed and developed an electrical method to
precisely measure the tensions of multiple wires simultaneously with a resolution of about 3% applying voltages
- f a few hundred volts
- We study the behavior of our system with respect to the bias
voltages applied and the wire length and we develop a model that allows us to predict the amplitude of the signal
- We demonstrate that this technique can be used to measure
wire tension at cryogenic temperatures, which has not been feasible before and should be applicable during cool down of large liquid-argon TPCs
- Some thought is need to make it work in DUNE
