Description

Mupix8 is the latest and largest prototype of a High Voltage-Active Monolithic Active
Pixel Sensor (HV-MAPS) based on the 180 nm HV-CMOS process from AMS. It was
developed for the Pixel Tracker of the Mu3e-Experiment at PSI which will
search for the lepton flavor violating process muon -> eee with unprecedented
sensitivity.
The Mupix8 prototype has a size of 2x1 cm2, integrates about 25000 cells with a
active pixel size of 80 x 80 mu2, a data driven readout and several 1.25
Gbit/s serializer.
After a short introduction to the Mu3e experiment and the requirements of the
ultra-light Pixel Tracker the Mupix design and results obtained with several
Mupix prototypes are discussed.
