VCO for frequency tracking

VCO range

Synergy VCO part number XXX has 1.2MHz/V VCO range.

Filter respons

80MHz LIGO VCO box is used to readout the frequency of the beat signal precisely.

Noise performance

Capture range and Lock range

According to a simple calculations...

lock detection and boost

rms detection

PDH box

Filter Shape

Open loop transfer function

Measured on 22 Dec 2015, with the average level of green transmission at 0.457.

Noise performance

LPF for RF cutoff

Remotely controlled Boost switch

digital channel assign

wideband RFPD for green PLL

A Silicon photodiode with the diameter of 10mm is used. To have a fast response up to about 1MHz -150V is applied onto the photo diode.

The schematic is available on svn

noise performance

Here is the noise model for the RFPD using liso.

DC PDs

PDA36A

The PDA36A is an amplified, switchable-gain, silicon detector designed for detection of light signals over 350 – 1100nm wavelength range.

parameters
Detector	Si PIN
trans impedance gain	1.5k - 475k (switchable)	[V/A]
responsibility	0.3	[A/W] at 532 nm
output impedance	50	[Ohm]
Output Voltage	0-5	[V] with 50 Ohm termination
Band Width	17	[MHz]
Dark noise		nV/sqrtHz

digital front end filters

anti-aliasing filter
anti-imaging filter
whitening filter

Thermal feedback LPF

expected transfer function of compound frequency actuator

Function Generator

To get a phase modulation imposed on the end IR lasers, a function generator is needed.

SR___

Summing Amplifier

In order to send a feedback signal and modulation signal to the laser PZT at the same time, it is desired to have a summing amplifier. The amplifier should handle the signal from DC to 200kHz. Currently this is taken place by SR560.
