The purpose of this paper is to present a new method and structure for the automatic configuration of a digital system to unknown delays in synchronous input data channels. The method makes possible to restore synchronism in node-to-node communication. Synchronism may be lost due to different delays introduced by the various communication channels. The proposed method allows differences in the channel...
The purpose of this paper is to present a novel built-in Clock Domain Crossing (CDC) test and diagnosis methodology for Globally Asynchronous, Locally Synchronous (GALS) systems. The methodology allows design and prototype validation, low maintenance and repair costs, and production / lifetime at-speed test. Moreover, high resolution diagnosis is obtained, to identify which device(s) and/or communication...
The purpose of this paper is to present a new robust methodology for synchronous communications in a BUS, connecting multi-clock domains. Traditionally, when robust solutions are needed, an asynchronous communication is used. However, the low transfer rates associated with asynchronous solutions make them inadequate for high performance digital systems. On the other hand, synchronous communications...
The CMS experiment uses information from its electromagnetic and hadronic calorimeters and muon detectors to decide whether to readout the whole detector. For such a task to be successful, all trigger primitives pushed through the trigger decision tree must be flawlessly aligned in time for operation at 40 MHz. Both calorimeters in CMS use the Synchronization Link Board for this purpose. In this article...
The calorimeter trigger synchronization of the Compact Muon Solenoid experiment at the large hadron collider (LHC) is presented. The synchronization method is implemented in the synchronization and link board (SLB). The board allows the synchronization of electromagnetic and hadronic trigger primitives at the LHC frequency (40.08MHz) and its transmission to the Regional Calorimeter Trigger using electrical...
