A VCSEL driver has been designed and fabricated in a SMIC 65-nm CMOS process. The preliminary testing results show the ASIC can work at 10 Gbps without peaking or emphasis structures. Due to the thin gate oxide of the technology and large size transistors used in the design, the VCSEL driver is potential radiation tolerant. We will present the irradiation testing results in the conference. To...

We present several ASICs of optical data transmission for the ATLAS liquid argon calorimeter trigger upgrade. These ASICs include a two-channel serializer (LOCs2), a single-channel and a four-channel VCSEL driver (LOCld1 and LOCld4), each channel operating at 8 Gbps. The serializer ASIC implements a low-latency, low-overhead, quick-resynchronization interface chip (LOCic) between ADCs and...

Single Event Upsets (SEU) are expected to occur during high luminosity running of the ATLAS SemiConductor Tracker (SCT). The SEU cross sections were measured in pion beams with momenta in the range 200 to 465 MeV/c and proton test beams at 24 GeV/c but the extrapolation to LHC conditions is non-trivial because of the range of particle types and momenta. The SEUs studied occur in the p-i-n...

Hollow-core photonic-bandgap fibres (HC-PBGFs) offer many advantages over conventional fibres, such as low latency and radiation hardness; properties that make HC-PBGFs interesting for the HEP community. This contribution presents the results of gamma irradiation tests carried out using a new type of HC-PBGFs that combines low enough attenuation over distances that are reasonable for HEP...
