 * The coil driver attenuates about 1/5 in the 1k domain. The original design of the noise monitor amplifies about 200 times ([[https://dcc.ligo.org/LIGO-D070480/public|source]]). Thus, the signal is amplified about 40 times from the input of the coil driver. Compared with the given input signal, it seems the saturation is mainly caused by low frequency signals below 10Hz.

=== Some design thoughts ===
 * The current design uses a couple passive filters, interleaved by amplifiers.
 * Following Rana's idea on Friday: a pair of low/high pass filter + instrument amplifier (where we get the gain), what else do we need?
  * Sharper cutoff (Higher Q)? Perhaps higher order passive filters?
  * Noise? Input impedance?

SUS Noise Monitor

Design goals

  • No saturations as long as the coil driver input signals are at the 99th percentile or below.
  • Provide enough gain (at 20 Hz and above) to boost the DAC noise above ADC noise.

Design inputs

  • DAC noise model: page 6 of G1401399.

  • PUM coil driver transfer function. LISO models are available here.

  • The worst-case dewhitening state for the noise monitor is ACQ off, LP on.
  • ADC noise level, about 4 uV/rtHz. (Reference: T070213)

  • Coil driver input spectra, G1801540.

  • The coil driver attenuates about 1/5 in the 1k domain. The original design of the noise monitor amplifies about 200 times (source). Thus, the signal is amplified about 40 times from the input of the coil driver. Compared with the given input signal, it seems the saturation is mainly caused by low frequency signals below 10Hz.
