Prototype Readout Module for the ATLAS Level-1 Calorimeter Trigger Processors
نویسندگان
چکیده
The level-1 calorimeter trigger consists of three subsystems, namely the Preprocessor, electron/photon and tau/hadron Cluster Processor (CP), and Jet/Energy-sum Processor (JEP). The CP and JEP will receive digitised calorimeter trigger-tower data from the Preprocessor and will provide trigger multiplicity information to the Central Trigger Processor and region-of-interest (RoI) information for the level-2 trigger. It will also provide intermediate results to the data acquisition (DAQ) system for monitoring and diagnostic purposes. This paper will outline a readout system based on FPGA technology, providing a common solution for both DAQ readout and RoI readout for the CP and the JEP. Results of building a prototype readout driver (ROD) module will be presented, together with results of tests on its integration with level-2 and DAQ modules.

For the Pre-Processor System of the ATLAS Level-1 Calorimeter Trigger we have built a fast signal-processing and readout ASIC (PPrAsic). The novel ASIC design environment incorporates algorithm development with digital hardware synthesis and verification. The purely digital ASIC was designed in Verilog HDL (hardware description language) and embedded in a system wide analog and digital simulati...
متن کاملA first-level calorimeter trigger for the ATLAS experiment
In the RD27 collaboration we have carried out system studies on the implementation of the first level calorimeter trigger processor system for the ATLAS experiment to be mounted at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. These studies suggest that the full system can be contained in six 18SU size crates which will process approximately 4000 electromagnetic and 4000 hadronic trigger cells and p...
