General
1 Definition
The HV Control Board Functional Test is a suite of tests to be performed by the Vendor of the HV Control Board. The test setup consists of hardware test fixture and a personal computer (PC) running a test program. During the Functional Test, the unit under test (UUT) receives power and control commands from the interface of the Digital Optical Module Main Board (DOMMB) under the host PC control. A set of Python scripts running on the host PC controls the tests and collects data for each unit.
2 Responsibility
a. IceCube shall define the Functional Test suite, create necessary test hardware and software and deliver them to Vendor. IceCube shall participate in setting up the test hardware and software at Vendor’s facility.
b. IceCube shall document the procedure for calibrating the test setup, and perform the initial calibration.
c. Vendor shall perform the Functional Test defined herein on every HV Control Board and ship only those that have passed the Test to IceCube.
d. Vendor shall make available the test data generated by the Functional Test software to IceCube prior to the shipment of the units.

Figure 2.1 Hardware setup block diagram
1 Hardware
The functional test setup consists of
1) the test fixture box internally housing the DOM Main Board, DC power supply, and the voltage divider (1:1000), and equipped with the mounting posts and electrical connection mechanism for accepting the UUT on the top side of the box itself;
2) Fluke Model 45 digital multi-meter (DMM) for monitoring the high-voltage output of the UUT that is scaled down by the voltage divider; and
3) the host personal computer to control the measurement.

Figure 2.2 DOMMB (RJ45) to RS232 (DB9) connection
Host PC
The host PC communicates with the RS232 ports of the DOMMB and the DMM through its USB ports using the RS232-to-USB adapter cables.
Host PC Minimum Requirements:
• Windows XP Professional
• 256MB RAM
• Pentium 4
• Hard drive
• USB ports
Ribbon Connector
The temporary electrical connection between the ribbon connector and the DOMMB is made at the connector adapter residing on the top side of the test fixture.

Figure 2.3 Voltage Divider
HV Monitor
See the above figure for the voltage divider schematic. The temporary electrical connection between the voltage divider and the HV output of the HV Control Board is made using a pair of test grabbers at the end of the test wires.
Calibration
The voltage divider ratio needs calibration. (See Section 6 Calibration.)

Test Definition
1 Initialization
Purpose
Place holder. No measurement is performed.
Pass/Fail Criteria
All units pass automatically.
2 HV ID Read
Purpose
Test the reliable readout of the ID.
Operation
Read the on-board ID device (DS2401) N times, where N = REPEAT_HVID_TIMES.
Parameters
|Name |Value |Explanation |
|REPEAT_HVID_TIMES |10 |Number of times to read the ID. |
Pass/Fail Criteria
All the repeated readouts are non-zero and identical.
3 HV Ramp Up
Purpose
Test the linear relationship between DAC and ADC, and between DAC and HV, when the DAC is ramped up.
Operation
Ramp up HV by setting DAC = 0, 50, 100, ..., 4000, 4095 (decimal, 82 values). Pause T seconds at each DAC setting and then, read the ADC value and the Fluke DMM value. (T = RAMP_WAIT_SEC)
Parameters
|Name |Value |Explanation |
|RAMP_WAIT_SEC |0.1 |Number of seconds to wait between DAC values. |
|ADC_LINEARITY_ERROR |0.025 |Maximum allowed deviation from unity of the slope characterizing ADC|
| | |value vs. DAC value. |
|HV_LINEARITY_ERROR |0.025 |Maximum allowed deviation from unity of the slope characterizing the|
| | |HV output voltage vs. 1000 × DAC voltage. |
|DAC_VOLT_PER_BIT |0.5 |LT1257 scale × 1000 |
|ADC_VOLT_PER_BIT |0.5 |LT1286 scale × 1000 |
|HV_DIVIDER_SCALE |(subject to |Calibration factor of the nominally 1000:1 voltage divider, defined |
| |calibration) |as |
| | |(High-voltage output) divided by (Fluke DMM reading) |
Pass/Fail Criteria
Pass, iff the following conditions are met
| a1 – 1 | < ADC_LINEARITY_ERROR
| a2 – 1 | < HV_LINEARITY_ERROR
a1 and a2 are computed by fitting the data to the following model
AV = a1 × DV + b1
HV = a2 × DV + b2
where
DV = DAC voltage × 1000 = DAC (decimal) × DAC_VOLT_PER_BIT
AV = ADC voltage × 1000 = ADC (decimal) × ADC_VOLT_PER_BIT
HV = High-voltage output = (Fluke DMM read value) × HV_DIVIDER_SCALE
4 HV Ramp Down
Purpose
Test the linear relationship between DAC and ADC, and between DAC and HV, when the DAC is ramped down.
Operation
Similar to HV Ramp Up, except that the DAC value is set in the reverse order of HV Ramp Up.
Parameters
Same as in HV Ramp Up
Pass/Fail Criteria
Same as in HV Ramp Up
5 HV Enable

Disable the HV Generator, set DAC = DAC_ENABLE_VAL, enable the HV Generator, and start recording ADC and DMM at ENABLE_WAIT_SEC intervals.
Parameters

|ENABLE_TIMES |30 |Total number of readings during the HV Enable test. |

|HV_MEAN_ERROR |0.03 |See Pass/Fail Criteria of HV Reads |
|ADC_STD_ERROR |2 |See Pass/Fail Criteria of HV Reads |
|HV_STD_ERROR |1 |See Pass/Fail Criteria of HV Reads |
Pass/Fail Criteria

Test Procedure
1. Turn on the test fixture power
2. Run the batch program runtest.bat by double clicking the shortcut icon. Follow the instructions on the screen.
3. Enter the following at the graphical user interface and click “OK”.
• Operator name
• HV Generator serial number
• HV Control Board assembly serial number
4. Load the device under test (UUT) on the test fixture
1. Mount the unit on the mounting posts
2. Connect the ribbon cable
3. Connect the HV test clips
4. Close the safety cover
5. Start the program by pressing . The program runs for approximately six minutes.
6. When the program terminates, remove the unit and set aside based on the pass/fail result.
7. Press to terminate the program. Pressing any other key will bring the program control to Step 3.
Test Data
Data File Naming Convention
For each run of the functional test, a text file with a name uniquely identifying the UUT serial number and the run number, is created and stored on the hard drive of the host PC. The data file names have the following format:
vvv_HVC_sss_rrr.DAT
where
vvv = Vendor identification
sss = HV Control Board assembly serial number
rrr = Run number. This integer value is incremented each time the test program is executed, thereby keeping track of multiple tests that may be conducted on the same unit.
Information Collected during Tests
The following information is recorded for each test run:
• Run ID
• Test date, start time, and finish time
• Operator name
• UUT identification (UUT S/N, HV Generator S/N, on-board electronic ID)
• Test setup identification (DOMMB ID, Test script name)
• Pass fail results
• Computed results
• Raw data
