A more comprehensive report has been uploaded here. I'll zip the data files and add them there too. In summary:
- There are several problems with the WFS heads
- Some attenuators don't seem to work. This could be a problem with the Acromag BIO, or with the relay on the head itself.
- The measured transimpedance at 29.5 MHz is much lower than expected. We expect ~50 kohms with no attenuation, and 5 kohms without. I measure 100 ohm - 2 kohm with the attenuation disabled, and ~200 ohms with it enabled.
- Quadrant #3 on both WFS heads behaves differently from the others. There is also evidence of a 200 MHz oscillation for quadrant 3.
- For some reason, there is a relative minus sign between the TFs measured for the WFS and for the RFPDs. I don't understand where this is coming from - all the OpAmps in the LSC PDs and WFS heads are configured as non-inverting, so why should there be a minus sign? Is this indicative of the polarity of the LEMO output being somehow flipped?
- POX 11 photodiode does not have a notch at 22 MHz.
- AS55 resonance appears to have shifted closer to 60 MHz, would benefit from a retuning. But the notches appear fine.
- PDA10CF photodiode used as the POP22/POP110 readback appears broken in some strange way. As shown in the linked document, a spare PDA10CF in the lab has a much more reasonable response, so I am going to switch out the POP22/POP110 diode with this spare.
I'll upload the data and analysis notebook + liso fit files to the wiki as well shortly. The data, a Jupyter notebook making the plots, and the LISO fit files have been uploaded here.
I didn't do it this time but it'd be nice to also do the noise measurement and get an estimate for the shot-noise intercept current.

While I have the data, I will fit this and post a more complete report on the wiki.
