1.4 Item’s Function in the IceCube SystemThe IceCube Neutrino Observatory System at the South Pole requires high voltage for one Photomultiplier Tube (PMT) in each of its Digital Optical Module (DOM) sensors. The PMT High Voltage Control Board is one of two subassemblies of the PMT Modular High Voltage (HV) Power Supply. The adjustable-output PMT HV Power Supply creates and supplies approximately 2000 volts maximum anode bias and multiple dynode bias voltages to the PMT inside each DOM sensor. The PMT HV Control Board creates and controls this high voltage in accordance with digital commands from the DOM Main Board. For instance the PMT HV Control Board may adjust its output high voltage to obtain different PMT photon sensitivities. The PMT HV Control Board also measures and reports the value of the output high voltage. The output high voltage is delivered to the PMT HV Base Board where it is applied to the anode for signal extraction and proportionately distributed to the PMT electrodes. There are 5120 Digital Optical Modules in the IceCube system, each containing a PMT HV Control Board in a PMT Modular HV Power Supply. The IceCube system has 4800 DOMs deployed over a kilometer deep in the Antarctic ice with 320 additional DOMs installed on the ice surface, all used for scientific research.

3.1 Item Identification
3.1.1 DefinitionThe PMT High Voltage Control Board (HV Control Board) is a printed circuit board (PCB) assembly, containing the High Voltage Generator module, power inputs, control logic, output voltage control, and digital interface circuitry, and, together with the PMT HV Base Board, constitutes the PMT Modular High Voltage Power Supply. The HV Control Board is mechanically mounted as a daughter board to the DOM Flasher Board and is electrically connected to the PMT HV Base Board via a high-voltage cable and to the DOM Main Board via a digital interface cable. No electrical connection, including grounds, is present between the HV Control Board and the DOM Flasher Board.
3.1.2 Functional DescriptionThe HV Control Board derives all the power from the DOM Main Board and generates a high voltage in the range of approximately 1000 to 2100 VDC and supplies it to the PMT HV Base Board, where the high voltage potential is divided and distributed to the individual electrodes of the PMT (Figure 1). The digital interface circuitry supports the following commands issued by the DOM Main Board:
a. Adjust the HV Generator output voltage
b. Report the measured value of the HV Generator voltage output
c. Report the digital serial number uniquely identifying each individual HV Control Board
d. Respond to power supply power ON/OFF commands
e. Respond to high voltage output ENABLE/DISABLE commands
f. The digital interface circuitry providing the above functions may be either internal or external to the HV Generator either in part or as a whole.
All the power for the HV Generator and the digital interface circuitry is provided by the DOM Main Board.
3.1.3 Functional External InterfacesThe HV Control Board has four external functional interfaces:
a. Power input from the DOM Main Board
b. Bidirectional digital control and data from/to the DOM Main Board
c. High voltage output to the PMT HV Base Board

3.2.4.5 Digital Signals
3.2.4.5.1 Voltage, Current, and Timing
3.2.4.5.1.1 Applicable Standard(s)
The logic levels and corresponding voltages between the HV Control Board and the DOM Main Board communications shall comply with the specifications in JESD8-B, “Interface Standard for Nominal 3 V/3.3 V Supply Digital Integrated Circuits”, JEDEC Solid State Technology Association, September 1999.
3.2.4.5.1.2 Voltage and Current Specification [TBR]
The voltage and current specifications for the digital communication between the HV Control Board and the DOM Main Board shall be as shown in Table 1.
Table 1 Voltage and Current Specification for Digital Signals
Parameter Min. Max. Units
Voltage output from HV Control Board
Logic “High” 2 3.3 V
Logic “Low” -0.3 0.8 V
Voltage input to HV Control BoardLogic “High” 2.4 3.6 V
Logic “Low” 0 0.4 V
Current out of HV Control Board - 10 A
Current into HV Control Board - 2 mA
Note 1 The device on the DOM Main Board with which the HV Control Board communicates is a Xilinx CoolRunner II operating with a 3.3V I/O voltage. The device is capable of driving a 3.3V LVTTL input as well (i.e., it can source more than 2 mA into an LVTTL input.)
Note 2 The table summarizes the specifications of JESD8-B, assuming the I/O supply for the CoolRunner II varies over 3.0V to 3.6V and the HV Control Board input sinks a maximum of 2 mA.
Note 3 The voltage and current specifications do not apply to the IDENT signal. For the IDENT signal, the requirements specific to the Dallas 1-Wire protocol shall apply.
3.2.4.5.1.3 Timing Specification [TBR]
The digital interface devices on the HV Control Board shall meet the timing specification in Table 2 in sending and receiving digital signals.
Table 2 Timing Specification
Clock frequency 0.1 - 1 MHz
Clock duty ratio 20 – 80 %
Rise Time for all logic and clock 0.3 - 9.0 ns
Fall Time for all logic and clock 0.8 – 10.5 ns
document.doc
PMT High Voltage Control Board Page 18 of 38
Document # 9400-0027-SCD Revision: -
Note 1 The timing specification here does not apply to the IDENT signal. The IDENT device operation relies on its unique timing requirements.
Note 2 The rise time / fall time values are from “Cool Runner-II I/O Characteristics”, Xilinx Document No. XAPP382 (v 1.0), November 11, 2002. The value ranges correspond to the load capacitance range of 0 to 100 pF.
Note 3 JESD8-B does not specify timing. A possibly applicable standard for the timing is JEDEC Document No. 13-B, “Standard Specification for Description of ‘B’ Series CMOS Devices”, May 1980; however, the Xilinx datasheet (Note 2) is probably more up-to-date and suites better for the present purpose.
3.2.4.5.2 Digital Interface Signals
The HV Control Board shall communicate with the DOM Main Board using the digital interface signals identified in Table 3. (“IN” = Input to the HV Control Board.)

3.2.4.5.3.2 Signal Multiplexing
The interface devices shall share the MISO, MOSI, and SCLK signals, as shown in Table 5.
Note The operation of the IDENT device requires the signal on the MISO line to have a rate of logic transitions in the range specified in the Dallas 1-Wire signaling protocol. The device for multiplexing MISO for IDENT and ADC data must, therefore, support both the normal (fast) CMOS transitions and the slow 1-Wire signaling transitions. The use of an analog switch, rather than a logic multiplexer, will accomplish such a requirement.
