The NA62 GigaTracKer (GTK) is a hybrid pixel detector required to time MIPS to better than 200ps (RMS) with a material budget of less than 0.5% $X_0$. I will introduce the GigaTracker Readout ASIC (TDCPix) designed to respond to these requirements, giving some detail about the main challenges, the architectural choices made during the design, the measured performance of the ASIC and detector...
The vast quantities of data being produced by modern particle physics detectors require the use of high-speed serial data transmission technologies in order to enable their successful design. This contribution will review the developments in this area that target the Phase II upgrades of the LHC experiments and may find application in other areas in the same way as their current counterparts...
A large contribution to the total material budget of trackers come from services for data communication and power. Optimizing the material budget without large scarification of reliability is important when designing trackers.
The WADAPT (Wireless Allowing Data And Power Transmission) project investigates the feasibility for wireless data and power transmission to trackers. The project...
