Description
Results and simulations of a TPC with an endplate with a Micromegas or a GEM
amplification followed by a readout by a VLSI CMOS chip Medipix2 will be presented.
The steps in progress towards the realisation of a sizeable prototype, within the
EUDET program, will be presented: improvement of the protection against breakdown,
integration of the Micromegas grid onto the wafer (InGrid), and design of the Timepix
chip provided with a timing and/or time-over-threshold capability.
