The main idea is that we need continuous monitoring and relative calibration info (absolute will be done by physics channels) from the above systems.
BCAL involves novel readout elements (the SiPM’s) and their performance as well as the possible ageing of the detector elements etc has to be monitored and studied extensively (gain shifts etc).
The main philosophy behind :The main philosophy behind :
GENERAL QUIDELINESGENERAL QUIDELINESThe calibration system should be:Modular-> applicable to both detectorsSimple (avoid optical benches and high power lasers, exploit available technology)The light->readout part: small in size->since readout elements are closely packedReasonably priced

Possible considerations for BCAL Possible considerations for BCAL +SiPM+SiPM
LED board size new designBoard height (components + PCB thickness = 1.4mm + 0.8mm ≤ 2.5mm
LED ageing: for output 20ns at 1kHZ expect 620sec “on”/year 7% deterioration/year for DC operation
Positioning the board: on the tapering of the Winston cone (can illuminate the other side SiPM)

To test, as soon as : 1)the Article one (new boards) arrives2)the light guides from USM arrive 3) some SiPM’s ???4)unfortunately the new Baby Cal arrived unpolished (so we have to use the old rectangular one)
•Test a “full” size read out chain from both sides •Check space in between guides •Extrapolate to real size•Check functioning of different triggers •Cross talk of different triggers

Configuration• Lucite 117x 95x 1.24 cm pane [instead of
1.3x1.3m] (already existed in the lab, but non polished) placed horizontal in the black box.
• Define a grid on the Plexiglas where a square grid of 10x10 cm was marked
• Few blue LED’s (V=17V) mounted on the two long (free) sides of the pane
• A Pb-block in contact with the pane fixed but scaned different positions in the grid vertically. HV of the PM was 1700 V
• Studied number and position of LED’s

Conclusions• The LED option has progressed well and
it is at the final design and testing stage• The position and signals, number of
boards etc for BCAL have been defined and will be verified by final testing.
• The light injection from the LED to the light guides has to be finalized.
• The number of boards, colours, positions etc for FCAL have been also defined for the FCAL, subject to testing with the first article.

VOLTAGES FOR LED CONTROL BOARD: A. All signals can be supplied by ribbon cable
B. Vbias will preferably have its own return wire (GND_B) C. Wires needed (8):
T1, T2, T3, T4, +5V, GND, Vbias, GND_B
CALCULATION OF VOLTAGE DROP IN CASE ALL LED’s FIRE AT ONCECALCULATION OF VOLTAGE DROP IN CASE ALL LED’s FIRE AT ONCEIn any case, assuming 25V operation, 1km of ribbon cable (250 Ohm/km), AWG 28 a pessimistic 10000 MOhms insulation resistance for each cap we have 2.5nA/cap leakage, i.e. 100nA per box of 40 caps which on a 1km cable gives a drop of 25 uV. If the insulation resistance drops to 1000 MOhms, say due to humidity, the drop over 1km cable will be 0.25 mV. If I add protection to the Vbias wire against overvoltage or electrostatic build-up, this is expected to add some microamps of leakage, depending on the device chosen.
This may result in a few mV of voltage drop for 1km wire.
