Description
For the future era of high luminosity operation in LHCb experiment, the Upstream Tracker (UT) is planned to be upgraded to a higher granularity and radiation hard tracker. CMOS technology is a promising solution. Compared to hybrid silicon pixel sensors, CMOS processes enable smaller sensor sizes while maintaining a lower material budget. CMOS technology is also a potential candidate for the tracker of future CEPC experiment. Unlike many CMOS processes that require modifications to achieve sufficient signal generation, commercially available high-resistance wafer-based High Voltage CMOS (HVCMOS) is intrinsically radiation-hard. we have designed and submitted a prototype chip named COFFEE2, fabricated using a 55nm HV-CMOS process. This chip features a pixel array of 32 rows by 20 columns, divided into three regions, each with distinct in-pixel amplifier and comparator structures. Additionally, the chip includes a bandgap reference, row/column switch, and digital-to-analog converters (DACs) integrated into the peripheral circuitry surrounding the pixel matrix. We will present detailed electronic designs, simulation results, and preliminary test results from COFFEE2 chip.
