13:00 → 13:20 Testing ECON-T and ECON-D ASICs for the HGCAL Upgrade at Fermilab

With a five-fold increase in luminosity, the High-Luminosity LHC (HL-LHC) is set to become the world's most powerful collider. To support this advancement, CMS is undergoing significant upgrades, including the complete replacement of its end-cap calorimeters with the High-Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL). To efficiently manage data transmission, ECON ASICs will be used in the upgraded HGCAL. The concentrator chips, ECON-T and ECON-D, take the data from the HGCROC ASIC, perform data selection and compression, before sending it to the back-end electronics for processing and storage. This talk will focus on the functionality tests of the ECON-T and ECON-D ASICs. An overview of these tests will be presented, including the yield of ASICs tested so far at Fermilab. I will also highlight my contribution to automating the testing system.

13:30 → 13:50 An overview of thermal and noise measurements for the Phase 2 CMS outer tracker

The upcoming High-Luminosity LHC will require upgrades to several CMS detector subsystems to withstand its challenging operating conditions while benefiting from enhanced functionality. In this talk, the focus will be on the CMS Phase-2 Outer Tracker. Results from thermal conductivity testing of carbon foam, conducted at UC Davis, will be presented, revealing a linear relationship between thermal conductivity and density. Additionally, an overview of the integration testing performed in recent months at Fermilab on the Flat TBPS system will be presented. Key milestones in the testing process will be discussed, along with their implications for the detector’s performance in the High-Luminosity LHC era.
