History of MCM's whose performance changed
MCM's which improved:MCM serial number | grade change | dates | initial status | final status | what happened in between 101
| C to A
| 8/6 to 8/20
| short in surface mount component
| grade A
| Short fixed at PACE.
Other surface mount components changed.
| 104
| F- to F
| 7/16 to 8/23
| short +5VA to ground.
| only the first 32 channels work.
| Surface mount work at PACE
| |
performance changed, but net result is about the same
MCM serial number | grade change | dates | initial status | final status | what happened in between 106
| F to F
| 7/9 to 8/5
| short of +5VD to ground.
| serial string would not load.
| Found short at HM
surface mount cap. Fixed at PACE.
| 111
| C to C
| 7/15 to 8/6
| "3rd block of 32 channels
dead to cal-injection, later 5th block showed anomaly".
| 3rd block worked (but low gain).
5th block dead (always 3FF). 3rd block
recovered (maybe ramp setup was improved?).
| stayed in clean tent.

MCMs which got worse:
MCM serial number | grade change | dates | initial status | final status | what happened in between 109
| C to F
| 8/6 to 8/20
| 2nd preamp dead.
| 2nd preamp OK, but 5 of 8 AMU/ADCs
didn't work. At least 4 of these AMU/ADCs
worked on August 6th -- the other
associated with previously dead preamp.
| short in surface
mount cap for that preamp found. Short fixed
at PACE. Other surface mount components changed.
| 112
| A to C-
| 7/8 to 8/23
| grade A.
| In the laser station,
4th group of AMU/ADC channels all
overflow, 24 other channels dead.
To check: Do these channels respond to bench-cal?
| attached
to Si+cable assembly. Surface mount components
changed, shipped to CA twice.
| 113
| F to F-
| 7/19 to 8/6
| only first 32 channels worked
| none of the channels worked.
| As far as I know,
this MCM remained in the clean tent without
being touched.
| 116
| A to C
| 6/? to 8/19
| This MCM was not put through
the "official" QA testing. It was one of the
first 3 MCMs we received and was extensively
tested. We did not find problems.
| Si+MCM assembly tested on
MCM test stand. 5th block of channels
didn't work (AMU/ADC problem). The 4th and 6th
groups failed intermittantly, but usually worked.
| attached to a Si+cable assembly,
surface mount components changed,
shipped to CA twice
| 120
| A to F
| 8/? to 8/18
| "worked" sometime
during the week of August 9-13. However, it
was never put through the "official" QA tests.
| Failed completely.
| It remained in the
clean tent. We believe this was damaged in handling.
