Description
The Silicon Vertex Trigger (SVT) provides the CDF experiment with a
powerful tool for fast and precise track finding and fitting at trigger level. The
system enhances the experiment reach on B-physics and large PT -physics
coupled to b quarks. We will review the design and the performance of the
SVT with particular attention to the recent upgrade that improved its
capabilities. Finally, we will focus on additional improvements of the
functionality of such a system in a more general experimental context.
