First tests of the n-XYTER ASIC for the CBM STS readout — Christian Schmidt¹, •Knut Steffen Solvag^{1, 2}, and Marcus Höhl¹ for the CBM collaboration — ¹Gesellschaft für Schwerionenforschung mbH, Darmstadt, Deutschland — ²Universitetet i Bergen, Bergen, Norwegen

The FAIR experiment CBM will be equipped with a large silicon tracking system, based upon silicon pixel as well as large area silicon strip detectors. With the enormous event rates projected for CBM operation, only a non-clocked electronic readout architecture appears to be able to cope. n-XYTER, an ASIC development of the neutron scattering community, is the realization of such a novel, purely data driven, self triggered readout architecture in Silicon. We present the first results of tests that aim to study the n-XYTER chip and its architecture in view of the silicon stip detector system for CBM. The work is inteded to form an advanced starting point for a successive CBM STS dedicated development of this architecture in the near future.
