VCAL RUNS - 200 mV


In this run, we delivered a calibration pulse to the mother board of one detector, which caused a fixed charge to be injected into all 32 channels simultaneously. The pulse height was such that on the AMU spy line, the pre-minus-post difference was 200 mV. (data for 70 and 600 mV are on the previous and following pages, respectively)

Below are shown the pre-minus-post ADC distrubutions for the first 8 channels. For each of the distributions, a quick fit was done to find the peak location, and this peak is marked with a vertical line

Channels 2,3,4,7 and 8 seem to be dead. Channel 2 also seems to be noisy. What is clearer here than on the 70 mV figures is that for a fair number of the triggers, no signal is seen even in 'good' cannels (1,5,6).

A postscript file with all channels (pgs 6-9 for 200 mV) can be seen here
