Description

For the High-Luminosity LHC era, the trigger and data acquisition system of the
Compact Muon Solenoid experiment will be entirely replaced. Novel design choices have been
explored, including ATCA prototyping platforms with SoC controllers and newly available
interconnect technologies with serial optical links with data rates up to 28 Gb/s. Trigger data
analysis will be performed through sophisticated algorithms, including widespread use of Machine
Learning, in large FPGAs, such as the Xilinx UltraScale family. The system will process over 50 Tb/
s of detector data with an event rate of 750 kHz. The system design and prototyping will be
described and examples of trigger algorithms reviewed.
