  1. The ATLAS Pixel Detector A CERN Summer Student’s-Eye View Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  2. SLAC, USA Cerne Abbas Man, UK Stone Henge, UK White Horse, UK Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  3. Where is the Pixel Detector? 1.3m long, 33cm diameter, 1.7m2 active detector area Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  4. Pixel Detector Requirements • Spatial resolution: 10mm • Temporal resolution: 25ns • Radiation hardness: 3 x 1014 cm-2 NE per year Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  5. Silicon Detectors – The Basics Extra holes (III) p-type Silicon Extra electrons (V) n-type Silicon Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  6. Silicon Detectors – The Basics p-type Silicon Depletion Zone Induced Electric Field n-type Silicon Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  7. Applied Voltage Silicon Detectors – The Basics p-type Silicon Depletion Zone Active Detector Area n-type Silicon Reverse biased pn-junction Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  8. Silicon Detectors – The Basics p-type Silicon Depletion Zone Applied Voltage Active Detector Area n-type Silicon Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  9. To readout Silicon Detectors – The Basics p-type Silicon Depletion Zone Applied Voltage Active Detector Area n-type Silicon Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  10. The Pixel Module 2D array of sensors Module Controller Chip (MCC) Front End (FE) electronics chips: 160 x 18 = 2889 pixels per chip 16 chips per module Circuit board Silicon sensor “Bump bonds” 1744 modules  ~ 80 million pixels! Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  11. What Does a Pixel Module Need? High Voltage (HV) supply – depletes the silicon  600V Data Opto board supplies  2 V Temperature sensor resistor (NTC) readings For Interlock Low Voltage (LV) supplies – powers the FE electronics  2.5 V Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  12. $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ My Project – The Problem • Pixel modules are expensive • Supply kit can be badly designed / made • Need a “module substitute” • Number of supply lines: ~7500 Test Box Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  13. My Project – The Solution Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  17. Actual Use of the Test System Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge

  18. Conclusions • Outcomes for CERN: • Pixel Services Test System designed • Will be implemented in near future;  At least the Pixel Detector will work • Outcomes for me: • Not massively physics-based… • But learnt a lot about everything else. • Appreciation of the scale of CERN • Engineering effort, collaborations, etc. Tom Whyntie University of Cambridge
