DC/DC step down converter test
First tests done with a supply supported by Floeth ElektronikSupply spec. was 15V to 3.3V, single phase step down DC/DC converter,equipped with an air coil switched at 150KHz, no additional filter.Environment was 1.5T generated with ALADIN magnet at GSILoad 0.5Ohm
Results:+ Supply is working at 1.5T +Efficency independent of magentic field- 70% efficency only- High noise generation independent from magentic filed
Our Requirements for switched DC/DC converters:• High effincency (low local heat generation) to replace linear regulators• Up to 2T magnetic fields means no ferrite shielded components• Low Noise distribution

Alternative DC step down design
• Multiphase design
• Further investigations will be the testing some Reference desings
• I.e. IR design IRDCiP2002-C, Converter 12V to 3.3V, >82% eff., 120A output with 12mVp-p ripple1MHz/phase• Coils with only 300nH will be replaced by air coils.

N-XYTER PCB requirements for FEB_D
• Raised bondpad pitch
• Separated LVDS and common mode signals
• NXYTER chip and PCB hardware with efficient and regulated cooling
• Additional diagnostic hardware
• Power control

FEB_D N-XYTER Cooling
A copper plate will be fixed on the bottom PCB sideThe N-XYTER will be placed on this copper plate from top side

N-XYTER FEB_D PCB
Changed/added:
• Alternative connector forseparated LVDs and common mode signals• New bond pitch• Separated supply regulators • 0.3V LDOs used• PT100 sensor out• Testpoints• New power connector• I2C and SPI spike filter
I2C reads now:• Temperature • Current• Testchannels Slow, Fast
I2C RW:• Serial EEprom for data storage
14th CBM Collaboration Meeting Split 2009
Status
• Power supply tests will continue with new design
• FEB_D PCB is now ordered
• FEB_D assembly is open
• New cooling case design ready for FEB_B, FEB_C and FEB_D
