Test of the first sample of hte production splitter made by Nicolas using the slow monitoring on the old TSFi at DCH-DCT teststand: (A) = TSFi # 3545 in Slot 5, logical slot 1 [the prototype] (B) = TSFi # 3543 in Slot 7, logical slot 6 Opt_Pow : Total (V) Short end (V) Long end (V) Efficiency (%) TSFi: (A) (B) (A) (B) (A) (B) (A) (B) Fiber: 1 0.98 1.06 0.33 0.37 0.33 0.35 67 % 68 % 2 0.31 0.35 0.12 0.12 0.10 0.10 71 % 63 % 3 1.18 1.35 0.41 0.47 0.43 0.45 71 % 68 % Note: 1) Same signal seen by different TSFi can vary 5-10%. 2) Long/short leg yield after splitter very close to 50:50. 3) The total efficiency is rather poor. The test splitter borrowed from Ray is more like 90-95%. Comparing the earlier measurements on fibers by Sang-joon and Xuedong using optical power meter: Fiber Meter mW/volt 1 0.66 mW 0.67 2 0.33 mW 1.00 3 0.76 mW 0.64 Channels light yield may have deteorated. Only taking fibers 1 & 3, a rough calibration of 1 volt TSF slow mon = 0.67 mW optical power. For production system: Oct/02 TSF Mon Meter test (mW) Volt mW/volt Y0 0.692 0.90 0.77 Y1 0.724 1.04 0.70 Y2 ? 1.33 Y3 0.398* 0.75 0.53 Y4 0.646* 0.96 0.67 Y5 0.676 1.08 0.63 Y6 0.724 1.14 0.64 Y7 0.776 0.35 0.22# * Sangjoon's Oct/02 missed Y4. I suspect that Y2 was actually missed while Y3,Y4 measurements were mislabelled as Y2,Y3. # Old short fiber replaced once. TSFi receiving conversion suspicious
