The Current ATLAS Pixel Detector
ATLAS is a detector at CERN designed to study 14 TeV pp collisions
Detector upgrade planned for Super-LHC in 2016
Pixel Detector:
ATLAS’s Inner most charged particle tracker
Measures (x,y,z) to ~30 mm
Pixel detector is based on silicon
Pixel size 50mm by 400 mm ~80 million pixels
Radiation hardness is an issue
must last ~ 10 years
A pixel module contains:
1 sensor (2x6cm) ~40000 pixels
16 front end (FE) chips 2x8 array
Flex-hybrid
1 module control chip (MCC)
There are ~1744 modules
~1.85m

Present Pixel Opto-link Architecture
Current optical link of pixel detector transmits signals at 80 Mb/s
Opto-link separated from FE modules by ~1m
transmit control & data signals (LVDS) to/from modules on micro twisted pairs
Use PIN/VCSEL arrays
Use 8 m of rad-hard/low-bandwidth SIMM fiber fusion
spliced to 70 m rad-tolerant/medium-bandwidth GRIN fiber
a Simplify opto-board and FE module production
a Sensitive optical components see lower radiation level than modules
a PIN/VCSEL arrays allow use of robust ribbon fiber

R&D Issues for Super-LHC
Radiation hardness of all components
PIN array
VCSEL arrays
Opto-board ASICs: VDC, Receiver (replace DORIC)
SI (PIN) @ SLHC (3000fb-1)
1.5 x 1015 1-MeV neq/cm2
2.6 x 1015 p/cm2 or “69 Mrad” for 24 GeV protons
GaAs (VCSEL) @ SLHC (3000fb-1)
8.2 x 1015 1-MeV neq/cm2
1.6 x 1015 p/cm2 or “34 Mrad” for 24 GeV protons
Increased speed of components
Receiver: 160Mb/s or 320Mb/s
VDC: 3.2Gb/s
Clock multiplier: generates fast clock for 3.2Gb/s serializer

Testing the 0.13um Opto-Chips
Chips were tested in our lab at OSU
Chips were irradiated to SLHC dose at CERN
Use CERN’sT-7 beamline, 24 GeV protons to test:
8 VDCs 4 “Slow” & 4 “Fast”
4 Clock Multipliers
4 Purely Electrical Receivers
4 Receivers + 4 Si PIN (Taiwan)
Due to limitations in the cabling could only operate DORIC/VDC at 40Mb/s
Designed special card to allow testing of PLL at 640MHz

VDC: VCSEL Driver Chip
Slow VDC 640 Mb/s
Fast VDC 1 Gb/s
Fast VDC 3.2 Gb/s
2.5Gb/s VCSEL+macro-package
not optimal
Both blocks (fast/slow) work in preliminary study
BER < 10-13 at 3.2 GB/s driving Optowell VCSEL
LVDS-like receiver works at high speed (3.2Gb/s)
Need detailed study with smaller/no package

Receiver
PIN Receiver/Decoder Chip
Properly decodes 40, 80, & 160 Mb/s BPM signals
recovered clock jitter < 250/100/50 ps for 40/80/160 MHz (<1%)
LVDS-like output has good amplitude and baseline
Amplitude 475mV, baseline=0.625V
rise/fall time 125 ps
No significant degradation after irradiation to SLHC dose
40 Mb/s BER threshold for 1 bit error/s
supply current @1.5V
Peak to Peak thresholds
BER Threshold

Clock Multiplier
Need to multiply recovered clock 160MHz/40MHz
up to 640MHz for serialization.
Both 4x and 16x clock multipliers work
Low Clock jitter < 8 ps (0.5%)
No change in current consumption after irradiation
BUT: Two of the four chips lost lock during irradiation & needed power cycling
to resume operation at 640 MHz
Could not reproduce this behavior at OSU on test bench

Summary
J First 0.13μm chip submission mostly successful
J Full characterization of pre/post irradiation
in progress
Waiting for the chips to “cool off” so they can be shipped
from CERN to OSU
J Aim for next chip submission in winter 2009
Will irradiate the chips at CERN, summer 2009
