Dr Masanori Ohno (Hiroshima University)06/12/2011, 15:50ElectronicsORALAstro-H is 6th Japanese X-ray space observatory which will be launched in 2014. Two of onboard instruments of Astro-H, Hard X-ray Imager and Soft Gamma-ray Detector are surrounded by many number of large Bithmuth Germanate (Bi4Ge3O12; BGO) scintillators. Optimum readout system of scintillation lights from these BGOs are essential to reduce the background signals and achieve high performance...Go to contribution page

Dr Yunpeng Lu (Institute of High Energy Physics , Beijing, China)06/12/2011, 16:10ElectronicsORALFE-I4 is a 130nm feature size CMOS readout IC designed for the next-generation of hybrid pixel detectors. The first version FE-I4A contains multiple powering options in order to evaluate the performance for future applications. The first optimization is being done for the ATLAS Insertable B-Layer (IBL) upgrade. FE-I4A contains two stand-alone linear-shunt voltage regulators(ShuLDO) and a...Go to contribution page

19. ASIC development for high speed serial data transmission from detector front-end to the back-endProf. Jingbo Ye (Southern Methodist University (US))06/12/2011, 16:30ElectronicsORALA 5 Gb/s 16:1 serializer ASIC has been developed using a commercial 0.25 um thin-film silicon-on-sapphire CMOS technology. This prototype has been evaluated against operational conditions in detector front-end environments of the proposed HL-LHC upgrade. A novel two channel array serializer ASIC is being designed to meet challenges in ultra-high data transmission in the range of 100 Gb/s for...Go to contribution page

Chia-Ming Kuo (National Central University (TW))06/12/2011, 17:20New materialsORALThe Preshower detector, part of the CMS Endcap Electromagnetic Calorimeter, is designed to have good spatial resolution to distinguish between different types of incoming particles. The Preshower is a sampling detector with two layers of lead absorber, each followed by 1.9mm pitch silicon strip sensors. Each of the 4288 DC-coupled sensors has an active area of 61x61mm^2, making a total...Go to contribution page
