Higher voltage power distribution is a MUST Read: voltage delivery at n times operating voltage SCTSLHC (from Marc Weber’s Genova workshop talk) UCSC US ATLAS Upgrade meeting -- Ely, Garcia-Sciveres
Two Options • Serial Power • Work started with Pixels. Demonstrated with present modules by Bonn group • Picked up for SCT modules by Marc Weber at RAL • Will be incorporated into stave prototypes • DC-DC converters • Proposed by LBNL • Initial simulations shown at Genova (details later) • No prototype yet due to lack of IC designer availability UCSC US ATLAS Upgrade meeting -- Ely, Garcia-Sciveres
First of all: Serial powering applies tomodules, that is groups of chips on one hybrid connected to one sensor. Within hybrid, chips are powered in parallel ! • one current source for a chain of modules; voltage defined by set of regulators • “ground levels” of any pair of modules vary UCSC US ATLAS Upgrade meeting -- Ely, Garcia-Sciveres

Serial SCT plans from Genova • More studies on SCT module set-up (1-3 months) • more noise tests e.g. introducing noise sources/ oscillations • closer look into AC-LVDS coupling • Built and study a more realistic system(½ -2 years) • Dense packaging; • Grounding and shielding issues • Miniaturized regulator circuitry; • Modified readout chip • Redundancy features • If promising, develop SLHC prototype (> 2 years) UCSC US ATLAS Upgrade meeting -- Ely, Garcia-Sciveres
DC-DC Converter options • Switched Capacitor array • not common in industry except for divide by 2 • Seems natural choice for us- fewer worries (see below). • Inductor Buck converter • typical in industry • We would have to worry about magnetic field, EMI from fringe fields, and would have to make our own air-core toroidal inductors.

Figures of Merit(for divide by n) • Voltage efficiency - εv = n*Vout / Vin • Vout is a function of the load = Vin / n for no load • Current efficiency - εI = Iout / n*Iin • Charge is lost charging the gate capacitance of the switches • Power efficiency - εp = εv * εI • Ripple - less than Iout*period/C UCSC US ATLAS Upgrade meeting -- Ely, Garcia-Sciveres
Figures of Merit for Divide by n Stack Supplying Io (all switches have ‘on’ resistance R, all switched capacitors have value C and Co >>C) • Low frequency limit – RC << 1/f • Hi frequency limit - RC >> 1/f - clearly we want IoR << Vs/4 (for Vs = 10v, R < 2.5Ώ (For ladder) UCSC US ATLAS Upgrade meeting -- Ely, Garcia-Sciveres

Test of Indium Bumped “2E” Assembly 2E = 2 columns per pixel. Only a small region of the sensor is properly bonded to the readout chip. The rest of the pixels are disconnected. The bonded region is shown here. X-axis is column number and Y-axis is row. Only the bonded channels were probed in what follows. Disconnected channels were masked off. Mask used for scans UCSC US ATLAS Upgrade meeting -- Ely, Garcia-Sciveres
Noise vs. Voltage Low voltage values not reliable due to bad S-curve fits This is the most probable single channel noise for select connected pixels.
