Front End Electronics Component Base FEE for TPC_MPD two ASICs from ALICE TPC : - PASA (analogue) - ALTRO (digital) REASONS - availability (total needed number of channels ) - reliability - good experience ● ALICE ~ 600.000 chs ● STAR ~ 140.000 chs(recent upgrade) - no long R&D S. Chernenko, NECC2011, September 13, 2011
STAR FEE Upgrade based on ALTRO+PASA (DAQ1000 ) > 10 times faster DAQ 1000 Old TPC features • Zero suppression done at FEE in the Altro • Event transfer 16-20 times smaller • Combined with slightly faster link, will allow rates ~1000-5000 hz • Event Buffering on FEE • TPC stays alive as long as throughput is < max • Deadtime only caused by TPC Drift.. • 0.004% dead / hz readout • Zero suppression done at RB in the DAQ room • Full ~460,000 10 bit words transferred over each fiber. • 10ms readout time every event. 100hz max rate. • No event buffering on FEE • TPC dead during digitization & readout time. • 1% dead / hz readout.

Processing in PASA & ALTRO - FWHM – 190ns - Baseline restoration after 1ms: ~ 5 % in amplifier / shaper ~ 0.1% in dig. chip FWHM ~ 190ns PASA ALTRO - Baseline corrections - Tail cancellation S. Chernenko, NECC2011, September 13, 2011 10
Conclusion - TPC is optimal tracking Detector for MPD ( high multiplicity environment, possibility for dE/dx measurement ) - TPC prototyping is in a good progress now ( development of field cage, pad plane, FEE and so on; test with the laser ) - FEE is based on ALTRO and PASA chips (ALICE TPC) ALTRO and PASA are available and can provide all required parameters - FEE prototyping is being planned to be completed in 2012 - TPC installation into MPD is being planned to be completed in 2016 S.
