Hi Aihong,

I just updated the 12-bit binary plots in the updated slides:
https://drupal.star.bnl.gov/STAR/system/files/updated_QA23_0602.pdf

The X-axis is the 12-bit positions, and Y-axis is the total counts.
The 12-bit binary plots are on pages 4, 6, 8, and 10, and the previous plots are on pages 3, 5, 7, and 9 for comparison.

Best regards,
Han-Sheng

Hi, Han-sheng :

Thank you very much for checking this. Since you have the information handy, I hope you don't mind doing a further check. To determine the presence of any stuck bits, would you please convert the ADC readings corresponding to an abnormal channel into a 12-bit binary representation ?  You can then make a histogram to show the distribution of these binary bits. The X-axis should represent the 12-bit positions, and Y-axis should display the frequency (or total counts depending on your prefernce) for each bit being set to 1. In the event of a stuck bit issue, one particular bit will consistently remain either on (1) or off (0), and on the histogram it will have either the maximum possible counts or just zero.

You may also make a similar histogram for a normal channel, just for comparison/reference.

Thanks,
Aihong

Hi Aihong,

I checked that the adjacent bins are not zero, and doubled the bin width but the double entry still there.

Hi, Han-Sheng :

Thanks. I just randomly checked a few from your list, and I don't see this from online plots. For example, see page 29-32 of this file :

To me it looks like a digital rounding issue.  For those bins with double entry, could you check if the adjacent bins got zero entry ?  
You have bin width corresponding to one adc count,  what if you double the bin width ?

Thanks,

Aihong

Hi Aihong,

The attachment is the runnumber list I used.

Hi, Han-sheng :

That is interesting. I have not noticed this in shift QA histograms. Could you give me an example runnumber so I can double check it in the JeffPlots ?

Thanks,

Aihong

Dear ShinIchi,

Yes, our histograms have the number of bin per one adc count and this issue should come from the data itself.
Does Aihong know how to deal with this issue?

Best regards,
Han-Sheng

Dear Han-Sheng
I would first like to make sure all your histograms have the number of bin per one adc count, right? 
If you count which bin number have double event entry counts, you might be able to tell which bit 
has problem in the ADC digitization depending on the SMD slat channel. Please talk to the read-out 
electronics experts, maybe Aihong as Prithwish says (or maybe talk to Akio?) for ZDC/SMD. They 
might just need to power recycle the electronics or plug in/out the ADC board etc…
Best regards, ShinIchi
