Oral

The paper presents an end-ladder card prototype of the data acquisition chain of the ALICE SDD experiment. The prototype includes most of the electronics devices that will be applied to ALICE SDD experiment. The card interfaces with the front-end electronics and with the counting room detector data link. It has been designed taking into account the constraints on the dimensions of the...

55. Evolution of the TRT backend and the new TRT-TTC board

Mr Peter LICHARD (CERN)

Oral

The Transition Radiation Tracker, made of 370’000 cylindrical straws, is a combined tracking and electron identification detector, part of the ATLAS Inner Detector at CERN’s LHC. The back-end electronics, which are in charge of the communication with the front-end boards mounted all around the detector, are made up of two types of 9U VME boards. One type is the ROD boards, collecting,...

26. SPD Very Front End Electronics

Mrs Sonia Luengo (La Salle, School of Engineering, Universitat Ramon Llull)

Oral

The SPD (Scintillator Pad Detector) is a part of LHCb calorimetry. Its function is to discriminate between charged particles and neutrals for the LHCb level0 trigger. This detector uses scintillator pad readout by wavelength shifting (WLS) fibbers that are coupled to MAPMT via clear plastic fibbers. The specific features of the SPD detector are the high granularity in the inner part...
