The electronics for the Regional Calorimeter Trigger (RCT) of the Compact Muon Solenoid Experiment (CMS) have been produced, tested. The RCT hardware consists of 18 double-sided crates containing custom boards, ASICs, and backplanes. The RCT receives 8 bit energies and a data quality bit from the HCAL and ECAL Trigger Primitive Generators (TPGs) and sends it to the CMS Global Calorimeter...

The CMS Global Calorimeter Trigger(GCT) is the device within the CMS Calorimeter Trigger system which is assigned the tasks of finding and sorting forward, central and tau-jets, sorting isolated and non-isolated electron candidates and reading out all the calorimeter trigger data. The GCT system also provides for a cross-point switch which facilitates the connection between the Calorimeter...

The CMS Global Calorimeter Trigger system's HCAL Muon and Quiet bit function is being
implemented with a novel processing architecture. This architecture utilizes micro
TCA, a modern modular communications standard based on high speed serial links, to
implement a processing matrix. This matrix is configurable in both logical
functionality and data flow, allowing far greater flexibility...
