Description
The Electron Ion Collider is an exciting collaborative effort to advance and invest in the future of nuclear physics and accelerator science. Part of this great effort includes designing a diverse set of RF cavities and control systems, in which heterodyning still plays a fundamental role. There are multiple frequencies in the VHF and UHF bands which require up and/or down conversion, and designing one circuit board that can accommodate local oscillator signals for multiple mixing schemes was a valuable and interesting task. A combinatorics problem emerged out of this component’s constraints that required organizing a large number of cases and integrating commercial data to reveal the best design choices. Pictures of the prototypes and their performance are displayed to demonstrate its success. This poster showcases only part of the vast and impressive collaboration between Brookhaven National Laboratory and the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility.
