ARC 48 8 Channel CCD Video Processing Board This manual describes the 8 channel CCD video processor board model ARC 48 Rev 1A The board serves two functions processing and digitizing the video outputs from one to eight CCD video channels and supplying DC bias voltages to the CCD s It contains eight identical video processing circuits that can simultaneously process and digitize signals from eight CCD video outputs Eight 18 bit analog to digital A D converters are provided on the board along with a 16 bit data pathway to the backplane Their outputs are multiplexed on the backplane on dedicated A D data pins from which they are transmitted by the timing board to the host computer The DC bias supply section of the board provides 32 separate low noise digitally programmable voltages with a variety of voltage ranges suitable for direct connection to CCDs and a video offset voltage for each of the eight video processors VIDEO PROCESSING The CCD output source signal sometimes called CCD video can be connected directly to the input of the board to a single ended FET input stage that also has provision for the user to install a source load resistor for each CCD output circuit These load resistors R203 in channel 0 are mounted on fork terminals to enable the user to install and replace them without damaging the board The load resistors are normally NOT installed at the factory A 0 1 uf capacitor AC couples the CCD video to the FET amplif
6. RANSFER The four jumpers marked DAC A D set the address that the board will respond to when writing to the DC bias DAC or reading image data These must be set to different values for each video board in a system so each board can be uniquely addressed whereas the SWITCH jumpers are usually set to the same value for all video boards in the system so they all operate with the same timing There are two modes for transferring image data from the A Ds to the image data FIFO In the eight channels all at once mode TIM _V_ AUX1 0 all eight A D values on each board are transferred in turn to the image data FIFO on the rising edge of XFER They will be transmitted over the backplane ARC 48 User s Manual 5 Updated September 27 2007 whenever the bits TIM ADAD 6 3 match the jumpers DAC A D on each video board starting with A D 0 and ending with A D 7 ignoring the bits TIM A ADAD 2 0 In the one A D at a time mode TIM_V_AUXI1 1 the addresses TIM ADAD 2 select which of the eight A Ds on the board gets its data written to the FIFO after which it is written directly to the backplane and transmitted to the host computer The default software supplied with the system has the one at a time mode selected The image data FIFO can be cleared by setting bit 3 of the board options word MOVE 0C0008 A Clear image data FIFO JSR lt XMIT A WORD The AD converter has a special mode called WARP that allows it to run at a higher spee
