    The ITkPix-V1 readout front-end (FE) chip, based on 65 nm CMOS technology, is designed by the RD53 collaboration as the pre-production chip for the upgraded ATLAS Inner Tracker Pixel detector operating with extreme rates and radiation at the High-Luminosity LHC. The ITkPix-V1 chip uses a novel differential analog FE design featuring low noise and small time-walk. ITkPix-V1 was submitted in...

    We currently developed a new front-end electronics for a liquid argon time projection chamber (LAr-TPC) detector, which has been developed for neutrino oscillation and nuclear decay search experiments.
    We developed the electronics (LTARS 2018) to have a wide dynamic range for input charge up to 1600 fC and a function to output a signal with an appropriate time constant for signals having...

    As the leading-edge international experiment for neutrino science and proton decay studies, Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is based on the LArTPC technology. The first 10-kton DUNE far detector module will employ wired-based anode planes with cold readout electronics (CE) installed inside the cryostat. The CE developed for cryogenic temperatures (77K-89K) operation is an optimal...

    The Phase-2 upgrades of ATLAS and CMS will require a new tracker with readout electronics operating in extremely harsh radiation environment and high data rate readout.
    The RD53 collaboration, a joint effort between the ATLAS and CMS experiments, developed in 2017 a large size demonstrator, called RD53A, to qualify the chosen 65nm CMOS technology and compare different analog front-ends and...

    To meet new TDAQ buffering requirements and withstand the high expected radiation doses at the high-luminosity LHC, the ATLAS Liquid Argon Calorimeter readout electronics will be upgraded. Developments of low-power preamplifiers and shapers to meet low noise and excellent linearity requirements are ongoing in 130nm CMOS technology. In order to digitize the analogue signals on two gains after...

    An alternative pixel-detector hybridization technology based on Anisotropic Conductive Films (ACF) is under development to replace the conventional fine-pitch flip-chip bump bonding. The new process takes advantage of the recent progress in industrial applications of ACF and is suitable for time- and cost-effective in-house processing of single devices. This new bonding technique developed can...

    The "Ice Ray Sampler X" (IRSX) is a low-power 8-channel waveform sampling frontend ASIC designed for HEP applications, fabricated by TSMC in a 250nm CMOS process. Each input channel samples into a switched capacitor array (SCA) of 32,768 samples depth at an adjustable rate of 2-4GSa/s, for an effective sample buffer depth of 8-16μs. Stored samples can be digitised with 12bit resolution using...

    In this work we present a low noise high speed readout electronics for large area Silicon Photomultipiers (SiPMs) to be used in a cryogenic environment. The board is able to manage the signals coming from a ~ 25 cm$^2$ SiPM tile, showing <10% SPE resolution and wide dynamic. The sub-nanosecond timing properties make them suitable to work with the typical mixtures of Liquid Scintillators...

    We present a readout chip prototype for future pixel detectors with timing capabilities. The prototype is intended for characterizing 4D pixel arrays with a pixel size of 100x100 µm², where the sensors are LGADs. The long term focus is towards a possible replacement of disks in the extended forward pixel system (TEPX) of the CMS experiment during the HL-LHC. The requirements for this ASIC are...

    Silicon Photomultipliers (SiPMs), used for light detection in Noble Liquid Time Projection Chambers (TPCs), can be ganged as good spatial resolution is not needed in the light detection. Thus, the detector capacitance seen at the input of the SiPM readout electronics is larger than any previous detector arrangement: from 5 to 12.5 nF. We propose an integrated readout system suitable for...

    The RD53 collaboration has been working since 2014 on the development of pixel chips for CMS and ATLAS phase 2 upgrades. This work has recently led to the development of the RD53B full-scale readout chip which is using the 65nm CMOS process and containing 153600 pixels of 50×50 μm2.
    The RD53B chip is designed to be robust against the Single Event Upset (SEU), allowing such a complex chip to...

    The nEXO experiment requires a low-radioactivity and cryogenically compliant interconnect medium for its photodetection tile modules. The pursued tile size is 100 cm$^2$ which is larger than what is available with commercial interposers. We made a partnership with the IZM Fraunhofer institute to develop a custom technology. In Fall 2019, an 8" full scale wafer has been designed at Sherbrooke....

    The monitored drift tube (MDT) chambers are the main component of the precision tracking system in the ATLAS muon spectrometer, capable of measuring the sagitta of muon tracks to an accuracy of 60 μm, which corresponds to a momentum accuracy of about 10% at pT=1 TeV. To cope with large amount of data and high event rate at HL-LHC, the present MDT readout electronics will be replaced and the...

    The High Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL) will replace the CMS endcap calorimeters for the High Luminosity phase of LHC and will feature 6 million channels. The requirements of the front-end electronics are extremely challenging: high dynamic range (0-10 pC), low noise (~2000e- to allow MIP calibration through to end-of-life), pileup mitigation through 25 ps binning timestamping within a power...
